Lay Back On Me Pal

Lyrics

I met a man without a face
 With knowledge of the human race
 He smelt and felt and dealt with grace
 Stupid enough to think that he'd seen it all
 I saw his eyes as he saw mine
 An optimism quite sublime
 He furnished words to touch your heart
 At least it seemed at the very start
 Lay back on me pal I'm here
 You won't have nothing to fear
 Thought I'd seen those locks before
 Tap tapping on a creaking door
 I'd let him in at times of war
 to take my mind off senseless misery
 And as the recognition hit
 Mugshots I'd seen began to fit
 I said to him you worthless shit
 He laughed and cried in a soliloquy
