Mean Old Man |
| You hear me cry out |
| Won’t you save me |
| You smile to my face |
| Yet still deprave me |
| I need proof |
| You’re a mean old man |
| Alright |
| In this semi-mad world |
| It’s best not to think |
| Roll in your boat |
| And you’re bound to sink |
| You laugh with your mouth |
| But your eyes don’t blink |
| You’re a mean old man |
| Alright |
| But the lord above |
| He knows that you lie |
| And your false complexion’s |
| Just another alibi |
| You laugh with your mouth |
| But your eyes don’t blink |
| And I’m sure glad |
| I’ve seen through you |
| And it seems all my friends |
| Are coming to |
| You spell me green |
| Though the colour’s blue |
| The debt collector has his eyes on you |
| But the Lord above |
| He knows that you lie |
| And your false complexion’s |
| Just another alibi |
| You laugh with your mouth |
| But your eyes don’t blink |
| And I’m sure glad |
| I’ve seen through you |
| And it seems all my friends |
| Are coming to |
