The Manual Lyrics


They say anything is possible
And life's just another obstacle
Well, show me the manual
And the man responsible
Yeah, I went lookin' for answers in the hospital
And came back with a pocket full
When I stole the manual
And killed the man responsible
Now we all make mistakes
But those mistakes just make us who we are
And not who we choose to be
(No)
My faith got misplaced
Somewhere between a superstar
(Hey)
And the boy that I used to be
(Hey)
I'm just trying to be who you say you are

But who are you?
I'm just trying to be who you say are the stars
And who is cool
But who am I?
(Oh, oh, oh)
Oh, I'm the dude responsible
Hey, but who am I?
(Oh, oh, oh)
Hey, I'm the dude responsible
(Hey)
They say clothes don't make the man
But I'mma show you how fresh I am
Soon as I pay my water bill
And a couple other bills
They say they gotta cure for my smile
Rather for my [Incomprehensible]
So they gave me another bill
But it was just the water bill
You know we all make mistakes
But they just make us insecure
And a little uncomfortable
My faith got misplaced
Between who I was before
(Hey)
And the dude you think you know
(Hey)
I'm just trying to be who you say you are
But who are you?
I'm just trying to be who you say are the stars
And who is cool
But who am I?
(Oh, oh, oh)
Oh, I'm the dude responsible
Hey, but who am I?
(Oh, oh, oh)
Hey, I'm the dude responsible
Say, I can be in the hood sippin' yacht with my boys
At the keg parties with the white boys
At the beach with the surfers in Beverly Hills
At a ex party with Vicks and light toys
I guess you can call me a chameleon
I adapt to any situation I'm in
And my momma ain't raise no fools
I'm just comfortable in the skin that I am in
Now we all make mistakes
Yeah, I'm a walkin' contradiction
And plus I never listen, ooh
And my faith got misplaced
Somewhere along the lines of
Tryin' to make my mind up, yeah
Hey, hey
I'm just tryin' to be who you say you are
But who are you
I'm just tryin' to be who you say are the stars
And who is cool
But who am I?
(Oh, oh, oh)
Oh, I'm the dude responsible
Hey, but who am I?
(Oh, oh, oh)
Hey, I'm the dude responsible

Travis Lazarus "Travie" McCoy (born August 6, 1981 in Geneva, New York) is a rapper, singer, multi-instrumentalist and lead vocalist of the alternative hip hop group Gym Class Heroes. Signed to T-Pain's Nappy Boy Entertainment, he released his solo debut album, Lazarus, on June 8, 2010. The lead single from the album, Billionaire featuring Bruno Mars, has so far reached #4 on the Billboard Hot 100.

McCoy was born and raised in Geneva, New York. In high school, he met Matt McGinley in his gym class, and the two bonded over their love of music. They decided to start a band, and played with other musicians until Gym Class Heroes was formed in 2001. Travis made his MTV debut in the summer of 2002, as he appeared on stage at the beach house on a standard nation-wide MC Battle that was held on the MTV show Direct Effect.

McCoy was arrested on July 1, 2008 after hitting a man on the head with his microphone. The man had been in the crowd at a concert in St. Louis when he shouted racial slurs at McCoy. McCoy asked the man, "What did you just call me?" As security was removing the man from the venue, McCoy brought the man on stage to call him out in front of the crowd. In a statement, McCoy's publicist said that the man hit McCoy in his knee, which was in a brace after he had suffered a recent strain

In early March 2008, McCoy opened up about his battles with opioids. He stated that he had been addicted to pharmaceuticals since he was 15 years old.

McCoy dated singer Katy Perry, who appeared as his girlfriend in the "Cupid's Chokehold" video and toured along with his band on the Warped Tour, on and off for several years. He had given a promise ring to Perry, and when asked if this was rehearsal for an actual proposal, McCoy shrugged with a grin. The two broke up in December 2008. They began dating again in April 2009. However, they broke up a few months later.

McCoy is a vegetarian.
