[SHANG]

Let's get down to business to defeat the Huns

Did they send me daughters when I asked for sons?

You're the saddest bunch I ever met

But you can bet before we're through

Mister, I'll make a man out of you

Tranquil as a forest, but on fire within

Once you find your center, you are sure to win

You're a spineless, pale, pathetic lot

And you haven't got a clue

Somehow, I'll make a man out of you

[CHIEN PO]

I'm never gonna catch my breath

[YAO]

Say goodbye to those who knew me

[LING]

Boy, was I a fool in school for cutting gym

[MUSHU]

This guy's got 'em scared to death

[MULAN]

Hope he doesn't see right through me

[CHIEN PO]

Now I really wish that I knew how to swim!

[SHANG, Chorus]

(Be a man) We must be swift as a coursing river

(Be a man) With all the force of a great typhoon

(Be a man) With all the strength of a raging fire

Mysterious as the dark side of the moon

[SHANG]

Time is racing toward us 'til the Huns arrive

Heed my every order, and you might survive

You're unsuited for the rage of war

So pack up, go home; you're through

How could I make a man out of you?

[SHANG, Chorus]

(Be a man) We must be swift as a coursing river

(Be a man) With all the force of a great typhoon

(Be a man) With all the strength of a raging fire

Mysterious as the dark side of the moon

(Be a man) We must be swift as a coursing river

(Be a man) With all the force of a great typhoon

(Be a man) With all the strength of a raging fire

Mysterious as the dark side of the moon
