"The Man" is a slang phrase that may refer to the government or to some other authority in a position of power. In addition to this derogatory connotation, it may also serve as a term of respect and praise.
The phrase "the Man is keeping me down" is commonly used to describe oppression. The phrase "stick it to the Man" encourages resistance to authority, and essentially means "fight back" or "resist", either passively, openly or via sabotage.
As a phrase meaning "the boss" it dates from at least 1918.
In the Southern U.S. states, the phrase came to be applied to any man or any group in a position of authority, or to authority in the abstract. From about the 1950s the phrase was also an underworld code word for police, the warden of a prison or other law enforcement or penal authorities.
The use of this term was expanded to counterculture groups and their battles against authority, such as the Yippies, which, according to a May 19, 1969 article in U.S. News and World Report, had the "avowed aim ... to destroy 'The Man', their term for the present system of government". The term eventually found its way into humorous usage, such as in a December 1979 motorcycle ad from the magazine Easyriders which featured the tagline, "California residents: Add 6% sales tax for The Man."
Curtis James Jackson III (born July 6, 1975), better known by his stage name 50 Cent, is an American rapper, actor, entrepreneur, investor, record, film, and television producer. Born in the South Jamaica neighborhood of the borough of Queens, Jackson began selling drugs at age twelve during the 1980s crack epidemic. Although he left drug-dealing to pursue a musical career, he was struck by nine bullets in a 2000 shooting. After Jackson released the compilation album Guess Who's Back? in 2002, he was discovered by Eminem and signed by Shady Records, Aftermath Entertainment and Interscope Records.
With the aid of Eminem and Dr. Dre (who produced his first major-label album, Get Rich or Die Tryin'), Jackson became one of the world's best selling rappers and rose to prominence with East Coast hip hop group G-Unit (which he leads de facto). In 2003 he founded G-Unit Records, signing his G-Unit associates Young Buck, Lloyd Banks and Tony Yayo. Jackson had similar commercial and critical success with his second album, The Massacre, which was released in 2005. He released his fifth studio album, Animal Ambition, in 2014 and is working on his sixth studio album: Street King Immortal, scheduled for release in 2016.
Michael Joseph Jackson (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009) was an American singer, songwriter, record producer, dancer, and actor. Called the King of Pop, his contributions to music and dance, along with his publicized personal life, made him a global figure in popular culture for over four decades.
The eighth child of the Jackson family, he debuted on the professional music scene along with his elder brothers Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, and Marlon as a member of the Jackson 5 in 1964, and began his solo career in 1971. In the early 1980s, Jackson became a dominant figure in popular music. The music videos for his songs, including those of "Beat It", "Billie Jean", and "Thriller" from his 1982 album Thriller, were credited with breaking down racial barriers and with transforming the medium into an art form and promotional tool. The popularity of these videos helped to bring the then-relatively-new television channel MTV to fame. His 1987 album Bad spawned the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles "I Just Can't Stop Loving You", "Bad", "The Way You Make Me Feel", "Man in the Mirror", and "Dirty Diana", becoming the first album to have five number-one singles on the Billboard Hot 100. With videos such as "Black or White" and "Scream", he continued to innovate the medium throughout the 1990s, as well as forging a reputation as a touring solo artist. Through stage and video performances, Jackson popularized a number of complicated dance techniques, such as the robot and the moonwalk, to which he gave the name. His distinctive sound and style has influenced numerous artists of various music genres.

So meine Herrschaften, darf ich jetzt bitten?
und alle Beamten singen mit...1....2....3
Refrain:
Wir sind das Amt,
wir sind Beamte,
wir sind allzeit für sie da von 9 bis 3,
wir sind der Staat,
sind seine Diener,
die Tür ist auf schaun sie bei uns doch mal vorbei
Wenn sie kommen kommen sie nicht gleich am Montag,
denn am Montag können wir für sie nichts tun.
Denn nach dem langen Wochenende, braucht man ein bisschen Zeit sich auszuruhen.
Und auch Dienstag, ist nicht günstig, wir besprechen ein Projekt,
Dabei trinken sie dann gerne 2,3 kleine Gläschen Sekt
Refrain:
Wir sind das Amt,
wir sind Beamte,
wir sind allzeit für sie da von 9 bis 3,
wir sind der Staat,
sind seine Diener,
die Tür ist auf schaun sie bei uns doch mal vorbei
Nur am mittwoch tut uns leid da sind wir leider,
alle nicht so richig für sie da.
Da besprechen die den ganzen Tag noch einmal,
was am Dienstag Abend war.
Doch am Donnerstag da geht es,
aber kommn sie nicht zu spät,
weil die Frühstückspause Donnerstags,
schon mal bis Dienstschluss geht.
Refrain:
wir sind das Amt,
wir sind Beamte,
wir sind allzeit für sie da von 9 bis 3,
wir sind der Staat,
sind seine Diener,
die Tür ist auf schaun sie bei uns doch mal vorbei
Doch am Freitag wär es wirklich, ganz besonders, großer Mist
weil am Freitag 10 Uhr Mittags, für Beamte praktisch Wochenende ist.
Doch an allen andern Tagen, stehen wir gern für sie bereit.
Und zwar mit allem was wir haben, mit Kompetenz und Höflichkeit. Genau!
Refrain:
wir sind das Amt,
wir sind Beamte,
wir sind allzeit für sie da von 9 bis 3,
wir sind der Staat,
sind seine Diener,
die Tür ist auf schaun sie bei uns doch mal vorbei
Jetzt einen ganzen Ton höher!
Refrain:
wir sind das Amt,
wir sind Beamte,
wir sind allzeit für sie da von 9 bis 3,
wir sind der Staat,
sind seine Diener,
die Tür ist auf schaun sie bei uns doch mal vorbei
Wir sind das Amt,
wir sind das Amt!
