Babyshambles - The Man Who Came to Stay lyrics

There's a man who came to stay

The boy he replaced, disappeared without a trace...

Stole all my songs and my style away

While no-one would say

what they wanted to say

So he was king for a day...

If you sail into the sun

Beware the eyes of green

And if the whole room tells you 'you are the one'

Well I defy you not to believe them, my son...

There's a man who came to stay...

Trip off the test, now the kitchen's a mess

and the garden's undressed

Every single gig I play

Something's not right inside

Paranoia and pride and nowhere to hide

If you sail into the sun, lala la lala lala

Beware the eyes of green

And if the whole world tells you 'you are the one'

I think you're hearing those voices again my son

If you sail into the sun

Please beware the eyes of green

And if it's all too much for you my son

I'm still here waiting though no no no no no
