Lyrics
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.
 
I'm never gonna catch my breath
Say goodbye to those who knew me
Boy, I was a fool in school for cutting gym
This guy's got 'em scared to death
Hope he doesn't see right through me
Now I really wish that I knew how to swim!
Lyrics
Be a man!
We must be swift as the 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!
 
Time is racing towards us
Till 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?
 
Be a man!
We must be swift as the 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!

Took this quiz an hour after watching the movie and got 10. If I had never seen the movie, I probably could have guessed 7 or 8. Nothing was memorable about this song; there's scarcely any advantage for those who have heard it.

I first saw this movie as a kid and I understood it just fine. "BE A MAN", stuff about fires and huns and typhoons, I thought it was the best part of the whole movie. Don't forget there's a montage at the same time.
