The strong, the mighty The forces of evil can never destroy The power of the Wonderman And though the most formidable journey lies ahead Only one will prevail Wonder, Wonder, Wonderman These haters couldn't get to where I am with a full tank of petrol, uh My uncle used to drink a can of kestrel when life got stressful, uh What kinda person should you be when wanna make people accept you, uh What does it really mean when you dream of being famous and successful When you were born to be special, Uh yeah and I went from the kid in class Text some radio DJs so they could bring me up To the young rapper everybody's ringing up Got em looking for a sprinkle of that pixie dust Mad thoughts in my head when its blowin' up Like, are you really big enough? I traded friends for fans, cement for sand Raise your hand the Wonderman See the bright lights shine in your face I'm counting on you to take it all away (the Wonderman) I saw the chosen one they're calling your name Are you you Are you you, the Wonderman Bored of being nameless Bored of feeling awkward When you walk up in the mall And cant afford a pair of trainers Imagine when it changes Imagine satisfaction when you make it Its more than being famous More then the applause and more than any form of status More than the performances in 20 foreign places Benidorm, Vegas, many more praises Amen hallelujah 'Tinie look what's happened to ya? Yeah they love that attitude brand new and improved, yeah And when the fans start grabbing you Show gratitude with a little brag or two Amen, hallelujah Tinie look what's happened to ya Who can say they ran through all the obstacles I ran, look I traded friends for fans, cement for sand Raise your hand, the Wonderman See the bright lights shine in your face I'm counting on you to take it all away (the Wonderman) I saw the chosen one they're calling your name Are you you Are you you, the Wonderman Come on come on the stars are where you belong Come on come on follow your heart is gonna take you home Come on come on the stars are where you belong There's no turning back from here See the bright lights shine in your face I'm counting on you to take it all away (the Wonderman) I saw the chosen one they're calling your name Are you you Are you you, the Wonderman From this day on the world will never be the same
