Lyrics

I re (Gm(maj7))flect on my re (Gm7)flec tion and I ask (C)my self the ques tion:

(Gm(maj7))what’s the right di rec (Gm7)tion

(C)to go?

I don’t know.

Am I a (Bb)man

or (F)am I a mup pet?

(Am I a mup pet?)

If I’m a mup pet, then I’m a (Eb)ver y man ly mup pet.

Am I a (Bb)mup pet

or (F)am I a man?

If I’m a man that makes me a (Eb)mup pet of a man.

(A mup pet of a man.)

I (Gm(maj7))look in to these (Gm7)eyes

don’t re cog nize

It’s time for me de cide.

If I’m a mup pet, then I’m a

(Ver y man ly mup pet.)

If I’m a man that makes me a (Eb)mup pet of a man.

I’m a (Fmaj7)mup pet of a man.

I’m a ver y man ly (C)mup pet.
