Modern Man Lyrics

One's self I sing, a simple separate person,
Yet utter the word democratic, the word en-masse

Of live immense in passion, pulse and power,
Cheerful, for freest action
Form'd under laws divine.
The modern man I sing.

Of physiology from top to toe I sing,
Not physiognomy alone nor brain alone
Is worthy for the muse,
I say the Form complete is worthier far,
The Female equally with the male I sing.

Of live immense in passion, pulse and power,
Cheerful, for freest action
Form'd under laws divine.
The modern man I sing.
