Story behind the song
Perception is unescapeable .
Lyrics
Man
A poor man can dance
Because his feelings don’t depend
On what he owns
With calloused hands
And ragged sleeves, he sleeps under
The gray haired trees alone
The silence settled with the sun
A toast to secrets with
The roll of a gin tongue
And the park waits
So patiently with sober eyes
We’re all too blind to see
Hello Mr. businessman
With your newspapers
And stock purchase plans
Red tie, Windsor knot
Black suit pit stop at the
House of ill repute
His oldest son
What’s his name?
Missed out on another baseball game
And a housewife with a plastic face
Just another Botox injected
Mental case
He’s just a man
And poet with alliterated rhymes
Must you be so sophisticated
All of the time?
Speaking just like skipping stones
Making ripples in the center of
Your tone
Organic paper black ink pen
Sip on starbuck’s coffee
Once again
He’s just a man
