Ellesse Man

Let me tell you a story about
This guy I know
He scoots round town, scoots around town
Might fall off, you never know
Sells fridges to his guys
Sells fridges to his wife
Strolls round town, distant sounds
The afterglow, of what he's found

He's the Ellesse Man, Ellesse Man
He's the Ellesse Man, Ellesse Man
Smalltown boy, in his void, afterall
He's travelled far
Smalltown boy, paranoid, afterall
He's moving fast

I caught a glimpse of him after nightfall
You have to believe me sister
It was only a shadow
You'll never know how hard I tried
Seeing him from the corner of my eye
But like a heatwave in the desert
The night may have tricked my mind
I cracked a window allowing me to breathe
When I saw backlights in dreamlike saturation moving through the sky
And I'll tell you friend
I'd rather die than tell you lies
Now I find myself lying on the carpet
With my dusty ashtray beside me
Taking a deep breath
Reminiscing in the afterglow
Of the time
That I saw
The Ellesse Man

It's the Ellesse Man, Ellesse
It's the Ellesse Man, can't you see
It's the Ellesse Man, Ellesse
It's the Ellesse Man, can't you see
It's the Ellesse Man, Ellesse
It's the Ellesse Man, can't you see
It's the Ellesse Man, Ellesse
It's the Ellesse Man

He's the Ellesse Man, Ellesse Man
Smalltown boy, in his void, afterall
He's travelled far
He's the Ellesse Man, Ellesse Man
Smalltown boy, paranoid, afterall
He's moving fast

I hope he's seen me too
And I hope he's seen me too
