Lyrics

The Man With No Shadow

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.

I woke up with a strange girl

A strange girl from another world

I woke up in a strange flat in a strange town

I never felt so alone

So alone and far from home

I could write a book about it

Yeah I could write a book about it

OK

So I might do the same today

And regret the same tomorrow

Regret the same tomorrow

I woke up in a strange place

I didn't recognize myself

The mirror in the bathroom

Gotta get out of here soon

So I found my shoes among the lot

There were people sleeping on the floor

I could write a book about it

Yeah I could write a book about it

OK

So I might do the same today

And regret the same tomorrow

Regret the same tomorrow

At the movies watching batman

Sitting behind a real fat man

With the loonies playing pacman

Standing beside a blissed out god

(I think you know me...)

So I jumped up on a strange train

Hoping that it went my way

I love to hear the whistle blow

And leave the place behind me

I thought that I was a headin' home

Home to where I once belong

The lonesome whistle blows, yeah

The lonesome whistle blows

OK

So I might do the same today

And regret the same tomorrow

Regret the same tomorrow

At the movies watching batman

Sitting behind a real fat man

With the loonies playing pacman

Standing beside a blissed out god

He's the man

I'm the man

He's the man

I'm the man

He's the man

I'm the man

He's the man

I'm the man

I'm the man with no shadow

He's the man

I'm the man with no shadow

He's the man

I'm the man with no shadow

He really is

I'm the man with no shadow

Bandits, bandits comin' on the right

I think you know me

Bandits, bandits comin' on the right, yeah

Bandits, bandits comin' on the right

Then your left side ... go down

Go down, man

At the movies watching batman

Sitting behind a real fat man

With the loonies playing pacman

Standing beside a blissed out god

At the movies watching batman

Sitting behind a real fat man

With the loonies playing pacman

Standing beside a blissed out god
