Pieces of a dream
Candied at the seam
Tucked under my arm
As I heard the alarm
I woke up in a daze
Followed by a blaze
-Golden afternoon-
So picked up my spoon
And put it to my lips
Chilled like a blade
Cuts through my cheek
The price I pay
A little bit closer
Try a bit deeper
Look under the sink
Cause there I am
Filled with plaster
The same fuckin' bastard
The Mystery Man
So can you guess my color
More famous than others
Not oak or a wooden hue
But could you guess blue?
Cool like sheets of sand
Wrinkled like my hand
Find it in the sky
Watch us when we die
A little bit closer
Try a bit deeper
Look under the sink
Cause there I am
Filled with plaster
The same fuckin' bastard
The Mystery Man
So why the gloomy face?
Was it a disgrace?
'Cause I was only joking
Your debts, they all will fade
Consider them repaid
Oooo lala la
Your stories are so old
They can be untold
Or sold
Ooooo la lala... la la la
The Mystery Man
