A Curious Man
He knew what he meant, but he never could say. When he told everybody, they all turned away. He left without touching the hem of the crowd; He was maybe too stupid or even too proud. But then he came and he whispered to me - A serious, curious nonentity.
I listened to him, and as he began I realised that here was a serious man. He quoted from Nietzsche, he quoted from Jung; He read from the thoughts of Mao Tse Tung. But all the time, I knew him to be A serious, curious nonentity.
He talked of his life and of people he'd known. Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com He told of the things his experience had shown. He stuck to my side like a Siamese twin; He often grew tired, but he never gave in – Not that anybody could see - The serious, curious nonentity.
It's a long time ago, but I'll never forget The glow in the light of his last cigarette; The laughter that followed the end of the joke; It seemed to get lost in the circular smoke Ring he blew so effortlessly - The serious, curious nonentity.
