Mr. Noman - Screamer

Drunk as a bum

Hitching down the road

On my long way home

The night is growing old

The mist is drawing closer

Feels just like a dream

If you cut me will I bleed and

If you hurt me will I scream

A car pass me by

With the brakelight lit

I lean into the window

Asking can I get a lift

A bearded old man

With a deep blue kimono

Smiled a toothless smile and said

Where you wanna go?

I’m tired as a dead man

I need to rest these weary bones

You ask me where I’m going

But man I don’t really know

He laughed and said get in son

We’re heading the same way

I know that weary feeling

And I know why you can’t stay

I was just a young boy

Just turned seventeen

Got kicked out by my old man

Just because I dared to dream

I’ve met my share of liars

They said they had the key

To my lifes greatest questions

But man nothing is for free

So when you ask me

Where I’m going I don’t know

No one to remember me

Or miss me when I’m gone

'Cause I am Mr. Noman

I am Mr. Noman

I envy those who found their way

I know it isn’t true

Life is not a fairytale

For those like me and you

Born without a silverspoon

Time is all we get

Yesterday has been and gone

Forgive and forget

So when you ask me

Where I’m going I don’t know

No one to remember me

Or miss me when I’m gone

'Cause I am Mr. Noman
