Lyrics
ONE day not so LONG ago
a MAN got his head shot OFF
But THROUGH some miracle he LIVED
He LIVED with the pain and the ROT
WHY or who or where or HOW
‘s got NOTHIN’ to do with YOU
NOW he roams all over the EARTH
LOOKING for something to DO
I loved him
I loved him
I loved him
Oh how I loved him
YOU might think he’s DEAF or dumb
or THAT he’s blind as a BAT
But the HEADLESS man is EVERYWHERE
WHETHER you see him or NOT
He lost his HEAD but not his SOUL
And he’s NOT the only ONE
MEN like him all over the WORLD
are DYING in the SUN
I loved him
I loved him
I loved him
Oh how I loved him
ONE day not so long AGO
A MAN got his head sawed OFF
But THROUGH some miracle he LIVES
He LIVES with the PAIN and the ROT
WHO or where or why or HOW
‘s got NOTHING to do with YOU
NOW he roams all over the earth
Just ANOTHER lonely FOOL
I loved him
I loved him
I loved him
I loved him
I loved him
Oh how I loved him
