Hercules

Cause of fear is fear itself
Check out your own backyard before you check out someone else (well, well, well)
Railroad tracks (railroad tracks) in my neighborhood (tell 'em 'bout it, brother)
Ain't no trains around, that boy just ain't no good (just ain't no good)

Wanna know (wanna know) what's going down (what's going down)
And the pimp on the corner looks like the sharpest cat in town (hmm, look at 'em)
Jungle rule (jungle rule), can't be no fool
Might get caught by the hook or the crook, hot time for cool (hot time for cool)
Look out Jake what you say
What you carrying, brother?
I hope you're clean, 'cause the man is mean
Don't have another brother

We all know the answer will come out in time
I might even carry some of your load along with mine
Thank you ma'am, mister please
But I must be Hercules (must be Hercules)
Must be Hercules (must be Hercules)

Like a bird (like a bird) on the wing (bird on the wing, now)
I just wanna be free enough to do my thing (I wanna be myself)
I can feel the pressure on every side
If you not gonna help, don't hurt, just pass me by

Hercules (Hercules)
Must be Hercules
Alright

Jungle rules (jungle rules), can't be no fool (can't be no fool) (yeah)
The devil is on the loose, no cool (no cool)
Got your feet (your feet, now) in the sand (deep in the sand)
Got to be down with the cats around, and you still gotta face that man

Talk about me if you please
Must be Hercules (must be Hercules)
Must be Hercules (must be Hercules)

Pitching rocks (pitching rocks) catching stones (leave the stone alone)
How can I survive, what's going on? (What's going on?)
Beg, steal, borrow
Somehow I've gotta make it 'til tomorrow

Just like Hercules (just like Hercules)
Thank you ma'am, mister please
Must be Hercules (must be Hercules)
Must be Hercules (must be Hercules)
