NoMeansNo - Disappear lyrics

rate me

Nobody has his own place in the back

He keeps it in order, a neat little shack

And every day he goes down to the beach

Looking for a clam or an oyster to eat

He said, Trn not unhappy, there is nothing to fear

I'm just trying to disappear

It's not unusual, the future is clear

I'm just trying to disappear"

He said, I know what I'm doing, I know who I am

I'm the number one fan of the invisible man"

He's covered in sweat from his head to his toes

But what he's looking for nobody knows

lt's not there and it's not here, he said

'Trn just trying to disappear"

Nobody stood in the middle of the street

Where he drew a chalk outline around his feet

Then he smiled and lifted his face to the sky

Flapping his arms like he was trying to fly

He said, "I may not make it to that great beyond

But I'll never be found with my feet on the ground

I'm pretty far gone but I'm still here

Can nobody help me to disappear?"

Nobody sat on a bench in the park

Waiting for the day to turn into the dark

Then he waved goodbye to that setting sun

And did a little dance when the day was done

He said, "The shadows loom, it will be night soon

And the stars will shine over a rising moon

I have nothing to lose, I have nothing to fear

I'm just trying to disappear"

Nobody went for a walk in the rain

I lent him my boots and my walking cane

The cane they found hanging from a tree

But those boots will never walk back to me

He's not far oft but he's nowhere near

That's obvious but it's not very clear

Nobody talks, nobody hears

He said, 'Trn just trying to disappear"
