Текст песни One Man Band, Leo Sayer
Ev rybody knows down Ladbroke Grove
You have to leap across the street
You can lose your life under a taxi cab
You gotta have eyes in your feet
You find a nice soft corner and you sit right down
Take up your guitar and play
Then the police come and say move along
So you move along all day.
I m a one man band
Nobody cares or understands.
Is there anybody out there who could lend a hand
To my one man band?
For three days now I haven t eaten at all
My
my
I must be getting so thin
Soon my cap won t be large enough
To drop a half a crown in.
So hey
there
Mister
don t you look so sad
Don t look so ill at ease
I can play you any song you choose
To cheer up the life you lead.
I m a one man band
. . .
And nobody hears the minstrel boy
As he sings his tale of woe
Nobody sees him disappear
And nobody sees him go.
So hey
there
Mister
don t you look so sad
. . .
I m a one man band
. . .
Oh
look at the rain falling.
Oh
look at the rain.
You have to leap across the street
You can lose your life under a taxi cab
You gotta have eyes in your feet
You find a nice soft corner and you sit right down
Take up your guitar and play
Then the police come and say move along
So you move along all day.
I m a one man band
Nobody cares or understands.
Is there anybody out there who could lend a hand
To my one man band?
For three days now I haven t eaten at all
My
my
I must be getting so thin
Soon my cap won t be large enough
To drop a half a crown in.
So hey
there
Mister
don t you look so sad
Don t look so ill at ease
I can play you any song you choose
To cheer up the life you lead.
I m a one man band
. . .
And nobody hears the minstrel boy
As he sings his tale of woe
Nobody sees him disappear
And nobody sees him go.
So hey
there
Mister
don t you look so sad
. . .
I m a one man band
. . .
Oh
look at the rain falling.
Oh
look at the rain.
