lyrics

THE MAN IN BLUE Words & Music © P. Pascoe

SO FIRST HE’LL PLAY THE WIDE EYED INNOCENT
THEN THE VICTIM HE’LL EMBRACE
THEN HE’LL CONTINUE TO REFLECT THE SENTIMENT
YOU’LL SEE IT WRITTEN ON HIS FACE

THEN HIS WORLD WILL TURN UPSIDE DOWN
HE’S LOST HIS BALANCE HERE
THUS SHOW’S PERFORMED BY A QUIET CLOWN
LAUGHING THROUGH HIS FEAR

IT’S BEEN A LONG LONG TIME TIL HERE
IT’S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE, IT’S TRUE
A BLINK OF THE EYE, WHEN YOU COUNT THE YEARS
YEH, IT’S THE MAN IN BLUE

I’M SOMEHOW THANKFUL FOR THE WOUNDS
SOMETIMES I REALLY WISH I’D LEARNED IT SOONER
NO YOU CANT ALWAYS PICK THE KIND OF TUNE
FROM THE FIRST FEW BARS
SO SAYS THE MAN IN BLUE

WHEN WE LOOK BACK ON OUR WAYWARD TIMES
AND THINK OF WHAT WE’VE LEARNED
WERE THERE REALLY THAT MANY SERIOUS CRIMES?
JUST THE ODD FINGER BURNED
SO WE DISCOVERED A BLUEPRINT HERE
FOR LAUGHING THROUGH OUR TEARS
