Manchester
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Manchester England England
Across the Atlantic Sea
And he's a genius genius
He believes in God
And he believes that God
Believes in Claude
That's you, that's you
Claude Hooper Bukowski
Finds that it's groovy
To hide in a movie
Pretends he's Fellini
And Antonioni
And also his countryman Roman Polanski
All rolled into one
One Claud Hooper Bukowski
Manchester England England
Across the Atlantic Sea
And he's a genius genius
He believes in God
And I believes that God
Believes in Claude
That's me, that's me
Claude Hooper Bukowski
Finds that it's groovy
To hide in a movie
Pretends he's Fellini
And Antonioni
And also his countryman Roman Polanski
All rolled into one
One Claud Hooper Bukowski
Now that I've dropped out
Why is life dreary dreary
Answer my weary query
Timothy Leary Dearie
Manchester England England
Across the Atlantic Sea
And I'm a genius genius
I believe in God
And I believe that God
Believes in Claude
That's me (that's he)
That's me (that's he)
That's me (that's he)
That's me
