I can see very well
There's a boat on the reef with a broken back
And I can see it very well
ย
There's a joke and I know it very well
It's one of those that I told you long ago
Take my word, I'm a madman, don't you know?
ย
Once a fool had a good part in the play
If it's so, would I still be here today?
It's quite peculiar in a funny sort of way
They think it's very funny everything I say
Get a load of him, he's so insane
You better get your coat, dear
It looks like rain
We'll come again next Thursday afternoon
ย
The in-laws hope they'll see you very soon
ย
But is it in your conscience that you're after
Another glimpse of the madman across the water?
I can see very well
There's a boat on the reef with a broken back
And I can see it very well
ย
There's a joke and I know it very well
It's one of those that I told you long ago
Take my word, I'm a madman, don't you know?
The ground's a long way down but I need more
Is the nightmare black
Or are the windows painted?
Will they come again next week?
Can my mind really take it?
We'll come again next Thursday afternoon
ย
The in-laws hope they'll see you very soon
ย
But is it in your conscience that you're after
Another glimpse of the madman across the water?
