Song Lyrics

You try to play cool like you just don't care
But soon I'll be playin' in your underwear
I'm like a mage with the magic spell
You come like a dog when I ring your bell
I got the money and I got the fame
You got the hots to ride on my plane
You're givin' me all that I desire
'Cause down with me I'm takin' you higher

I'm the baddest of the bad
I'm the best that you've ever had
I'm the tops, I'm the thing
All the girls get up when I sing, yeah
I'm the meanest in the place
Step up, I'll mess with your face
I don't care where you are
Look up and follow the star

Oh, I'm gonna tear down the wall
I may not be here when you call
So best be givin' me your all, ooh

After the havoc that I'm gonna wreak
No more words will critics have to speak
I've got the answers to the tangled knot
Sleep tight in your cot

Oh baby, I've been told that I'm goin' crazy
Oh baby, but I can't be held down
Oh baby, somehow I'm keepin' it steady
Oh baby, I'm tearing up this town

Hey, this is what I like
Cut my heart with a martyr's spike
Hey, this is nothing new
I got more than enough for you

I can take on anybody, I can do my thing
I don't wanna hurt nobody but a bee has got to sting
I'm 'a fix it if you mix it up (hoo hoo)
Talk smack then I'm a'gonna shut you up (hoo hoo)

I am the greatest man that ever lived
I was born to give (I was born to give)
I am the greatest man that ever lived, oh
Radioactive

Somebody said, "All the world is a stage
And each of us is a player"
That's what I've been tryin' to tell you
In Act I, I was struggling to survive
Nobody wanted my action dead or alive
Act two, I hit the big time
And bodies be all up on my behind
And I can't help myself
'Cause I was born to shine
If you don't like it, you can shove it
But you don't like it, you love it
So I'll be up here in a rage
Till they bring the curtain down on this stage

I'm the greatest man that ever lived
I'm the greatest man that ever lived

I am the greatest man that ever lived
I was born to give and give and give
I am the greatest man that ever lived
Radioac-dioac-dioac-dioactive

I am the greatest man that ever lived
I was born to give
