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
