Not A Common Man lyrics - Duncan Sheik

(from "American Psycho" soundtrack)

Look at history, open the books,

There are statues with great looks,

There are gods, there are kings,

I'm pretty sure I'm the same thing.

Beyond boundaries, beyond rules,

I've been taught in the best schools,

There is little I won't do,

Is the same thing true of you?

I am needing so much more,

Every pleasure is a bore,

I am something other than a common man,

I'm not a common man.

I do suspect I'm one of few,

I can show you something new,

All the constraints, they are all gone,

I'll confess no interest in right and wrong.

I am needing so much more,

Every pleasure is a bore,

I am something other than a common man,

I'm not a common man.

I am greedy, you're a whore,

What's the difference? Who's keeping score?

There's no reason to be fair,

Doesn't matter if you're not there.

Are you losing too much blood?

Let it flow, let it flood,

Just keep breathing, if you can

And you will see I'm not a common man.

I am needing so much more,

Every pleasure is a bore,

I am something other than a common man,

I'm not a common man.
