Lyrics
Whisperman
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.
People come around the window,
People come around the door
People come around and ask me
If I can say some more
'Cause I'm a whisperman, yes I am!
I can read somebody's back hand, and I can read your mind
What you need is body heat, ask for it any time
'Cause I'm a whisperman, yeah, yes I am!
I can see up your staircase, and I can see down your hall,
I can see almost anything, or anything at all,
'Cause I'm a whisperman, yeah, yes I am!
I can see behind your eyelid,
I can see behind your head
I can only check you on the windshield,
Write them on your bed.
'Cause I'm a whisperman, yeah, yes I am!
