A Ridiculous Man

Lyrics

He stands by the out bank With his hat and his glove And the tattered old grey coat That he's so proud of He's a ridiculous man He's a ridiculous man And everybody wants to know Why he seems so glad Why he feels so good when he looks so bad He's a ridiculous man He's a ridiculous man He's got a cattle ranch in Argentina He's got an art museum in Pasadena He's got a bank in Switzerland He's a ridiculous man He's got a room full of Picasso A library full of Rambeau He goes swimmin' with Cousteau He's a ridiculous man He once thought everyone was acting And everyone was strange Hе thought everyone was lying Though it can bе arranged He's a ridiculous man He's a ridiculous man So, he sat night and day In a chair made of steel Nothing bothered him 'Cause he thought nothing was real He's a ridiculous man He's a ridiculous man He's got a cattle ranch in Argentina He's got an art museum in Pasadena He's got a bank in Switzerland He's a ridiculous man He's got a room full of Picasso A library full of Trousseau He goes swimmin' with Cousteau He's a ridiculous man Now he walks through the dreams Where Klieg lights stood For the voluptuous allure of Hollywood He's a ridiculous man He's a ridiculous man And he laughs at himself in a city gone insane He runs through burning buildings Pulling people from the flames He's a ridiculous man He's a ridiculous man He's a ridiculous man Such a ridiculous man He's a ridiculous man He's a ridiculous man
