The Lunatic

There was a time I liked him

Now I don't know what to say

When I see him coming

I just look the other way

Ah, he's dangerous

There's a sparkle in his eyes

When they should be dull and grey

Oh

He's got an air of confidence

Goes out on his own

Has a very few friends

And doesn't use a phone

Ah, mysterious

Thank god the law is watching

Now they'll drag him from his home

Oh, oh

Once he was a lovely lad

Compliant and tame

Something must have happened

To turn him insane

He lost his way

And now he's full-grown

He's a lunatic

With a mind of his own

Once he was a lovely lad

Compliant and tame

Something must have happened

To turn him insane

He lost his way

And now he's full-grown

He's a lunatic

With a mind of his own

It's not as if he barks

Under a waxing gibbus moon

It's another kind of madness

Same old words a different tune

Ah, it's scary

Not long before the Ministry

Is bursting his balloon

Oh, oh
