Funny Man

(album: Happy To Be... - 1976)

He stood almost unnoticed
No one really knew about his name
He spoke of love and mostly of justice
And never even pointed to blame
Funny man

As long as I remember
He's always been standing there
His eyes I know have never surrendered
As if there's nothing more we could hide from him
You got to know

Time has stopped all around him
And stands besides him
And his words fly above hats and trees
Funny man

He can make you discover
How you could smile in rain
He knows that times are getting harder
And keeps on trying over again
He's a funny man

As long as I remember
He's always been standing there
His eyes I know have never surrendered
As if there's nothing more we could hide from him
You got to know

Time has stopped all around him
And stands besides him
And his words fly above hats and trees
Funny man

He can make you discover
How you could smile in rain
He knows that times are getting harder
And keeps on trying over again
He's a funny man
