Made Man Songtext
von Mark Seymour

I never paid him much attention
He was a private kind of man
He never gave a lot away to me
But he must have had it all laid out from the start

He′s on the television every night
People talk about him all the time
Makes me wonder what I've been doing all these years
To lose that friend of mine

He′s a made man
He wears that badge of honour
He's a made man
Everything fell right into place
He's a made man
He′s got the numbers to prove it
And the girl on his arm has perfect taste

People come and go in your life
I don′t care much anymore
I count my friends on one hand at a time
Try to keep the wolf from the door


What goes around comes around every time
And gossip won't change the behaviour
Of anyone who′s got an axe to grind
And it won't bring back that friend of mine

He′s a made man
He wears that badge of honour
He's a made man
Everything fell right into place
He′s a made man
He's got the numbers to prove it
And the girl on his arm has perfect taste

So if you've got that Midas touch
Be careful not to care too much
For friends just have that certain way
Of holding on too long

He′s a made man
He wears that badge of honour
He′s a made man
Everything fell right into place
He's a made man
He′s got the numbers to prove it
And the girl on his arm has perfect taste


I never paid him much attention
He was a private kind of man
He never gave a lot away to me
But he must have had it all laid out from the start

He's on the television every night
People talk about him all the time
Makes me wonder what I′ve been doing all these years
To lose that friend of mine
