You count the minutes like beads on a string
 Open the floor for a little debate
 While you sit and watch the rug unravelling
 You got a message from the weather man
 You're looking for a thumb when there's a hole to fill
 Who bites the bullet?
 Man of action will
 Call me. Have gun. Will travel.

 Think about it, ponder on that
 If you can't make that move, man of action will
 Think about it, ponder on this
 With a fist or a kiss
 I'll put your dreams in action

 Pressure's building up and down the line
 You see the difference in the smallest thing
 Put a new tape in your message machine
 Hit the shelters 'til you see what change will bring
 Sometimes justice seems a fragile thing
 You paralyze it with a lack of will
 Trade in your karma
 Man of action will
 Call the avenging angel

 Think about it, ponder on this
 If you can't make that move, man of action will
 Think about it, ponder on that
 Time to cut through the fat
 I am your first reaction

 Someone's got to push it on
 Someone's got to shake it on
 Someone's got to take it on
 Man of action will
