Book of Mormon - Man Up [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[ELDER CUNNINGHAM:]
What did Jesus do
When they sentanced him to die?
Did he try to run away?
Did he just break down and cry?

No, Jesus dug down deep
Knowing what he had to do
When faced with his own death
Jesus knew that he had to

Man up
He had to man up
So he crawled up on that cross
And he stuck it out
And he manned up
Christ, he manned up
And taught us all what real manning
Up is about!

And now its up to me
And its time to man up!
Jesus had his time ta
Now its mine ta MAN UP!

Im taking the reins
Im crossing the bear!
Just like Jesus
Im growing a pair!
Ive gotta stand up
Can't just clam up
Its time ta-
MAN UP!

Cuz theres a time in your life
When you know youve got to
MAN UP
Dont let it pass you by
Theres just one time to
MAN UP

Watch me man up like
Nobody else!
Im gonna man up all
Over myself!
Ive got to get ready
Its time ta
Time ta!

What did Jesus do
When they put nails in his hands?
Did he scream like a girl?
Or did he take it like a man?
When someone had to die
To save us from our sins
Jesus said "Ill do it!"
And he took it on the chin!

He manned up!
He manned up
He took a bullet for me and you
Thats man up
Real man up
And now its my time ta
DO IT TOO!

Time to be a hero
And slay the monster!
Time to battle darkness
Youre not my father!
Im gonna time ta, just watch me go!
Time to stand up and steal the show!
Time ta! Mine ta![x2]
