lyrics

Nobody understands how
It seems like you should know by now
You make the same mistakes over and over they wonder if you'll ever learn

You still often trip on your bootlace
You spit in the wind and it blows in your face
But you don't seem concerned
That they find you absurd

Motorists honk at you every day
'Cause you walk across the street without looking both ways
Over and over you carelessly walk off the curb

There's a stain on your shirt where some cake smeared
And you often have crumbs stuck in your beard
But you don't seem too stirred
That they find you absurd

Chorus:
Another day soaking wet in the rain without an umbrella
All the people say "What a shame, you know he's looking less than stellar"

They can't understand how you're not dead
Were there some pages missing in the book that you read?
Over and over though everything still seems a blur

You forget to pull up your zipper
And your breath smells like garlic and kipper
You don't mind their choice words
Though they find you absurd

Repeat Chorus
"... You know he's quite an unusual fella
"He must have spent his whole life in a cellar
"My word... he's just so absurd"

The "band" is comprised only of Jon Smith, as he sings all vocals, plays over 15 instruments, and writes all the songs. With thoughtful lyrics, unique arrangements, and a dynamic vocal range, he's likely to captivate. ... more
