[Intro]
Ooh, ooh

[Verse 1]
Well, I knew him from before
Woke up screaming with his face at my window
He was banging on my door
There was no way that I was gonna go

[Chorus]
'Cause no matter where I am
I'm just two steps ahead of that man
No matter where I am
I'm just two steps ahead of that man

[Verse 2]
In the mirror on the wall
Were two faces staring at me from the glass
Was it really there at all?
An illusion that would haunt me from the past

[Chorus]
'Cause no matter where I am
I'm just two steps ahead of that man
No matter where I am
I'm just two steps ahead of that man
[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Can't get ahead of that man
I can't, can't get ahead
Can't get ahead of that man
I can't get ahead
Can't get ahead of that man
Can't get ahead
Can't get ahead of that man
Can't

[Verse 3]
I was walking down the street
When I heard the sound of feet so close behind me
When I turned and looked around
With nobody to be found, it would remind me

[Chorus]
That no matter where I am
I'm just two steps ahead of that man
No matter where I am
I'm just two steps ahead of that man

[Outro]
I can't get ahead
Can't get ahead of that man
I can't get ahead
Can't get ahead of that man
I can't get ahead
Can't get ahead of that man
I can't get ahead
Can't get ahead of that man
I can't get ahead
Can't get ahead of that man
