Lyrics
The Bogus Man
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.
The bogus man is on his way
As fast as he can run
He's tired but he'll get to you
And shoot you with his gun
Focussed his mind
On something he cared about
But it came out a shout
Just like before
The bogus man is at your heels
Now clutching at your coat
You must be quick now hurry up
He's scratching at your throat
Concealed his doubt
By skilful evasion
But he couldn't find out
About deception
The bogus man is on his way
As fast as he can run
He's tired but he'll get to you
And show you lots of fun
