This Man is Dangerous
This man is dangerous
He'll crush you in the palm of his hand
This man is outrageous
He'll hurt you in ways you don't understand
And you know
Better not believe him
Better not deceive him
Always on the sidelines
Never where the action is
Inscrutable and silent
Each and every night like this
This man is infamous
A train bound for nowhere, on time
This man's not glamorous
Stuck in light rotation with a lager and lime
Can't you see
He is out to get you
He won't forget you
Maybe you have seen me
Wondering "Who is that man?"
A giggle with your girlfriends
Suddenly something began
Flashy nylon jumper
Climbing through the window
Moving like a mammoth
Swinging like a sinner
Spread across the floorboards
Running all the numbers
Picking out the winner
And you're
Breaking all the bottles
Checking out the scoreboard
Closing down the office
Linger in the doorway
Smells like instant coffee
Singing in the shower
Spending lonely hours
Oh yes
Simmer little seaweed
Intimate, about to burst
I can see what you need
Irrigation for a liquid thirst
This man's preposterous
Glory but never the blame
This man is prosperous
Stacking up the chips of a bed parlour game
Take your time
Don't try to be us
You never see us
Lavatory percussion
Rhythm moving down your spine
End of all discussion
Did you get to draw the line?
This man is dangerous
He'll crush you in the palm of his hand
This man is outrageous
He'll hurt you in ways you don't understand
And you know
Better not believe him
Better not deceive him
He'll crush you in the palm of his hand
This man is outrageous
He'll hurt you in ways you don't understand
And you know
Better not believe him
Better not deceive him
Always on the sidelines
Never where the action is
Inscrutable and silent
Each and every night like this
This man is infamous
A train bound for nowhere, on time
This man's not glamorous
Stuck in light rotation with a lager and lime
Can't you see
He is out to get you
He won't forget you
Maybe you have seen me
Wondering "Who is that man?"
A giggle with your girlfriends
Suddenly something began
Flashy nylon jumper
Climbing through the window
Moving like a mammoth
Swinging like a sinner
Spread across the floorboards
Running all the numbers
Picking out the winner
And you're
Breaking all the bottles
Checking out the scoreboard
Closing down the office
Linger in the doorway
Smells like instant coffee
Singing in the shower
Spending lonely hours
Oh yes
Simmer little seaweed
Intimate, about to burst
I can see what you need
Irrigation for a liquid thirst
This man's preposterous
Glory but never the blame
This man is prosperous
Stacking up the chips of a bed parlour game
Take your time

End of all discussion
Did you get to draw the line?
This man is dangerous
He'll crush you in the palm of his hand
This man is outrageous
He'll hurt you in ways you don't understand
And you know
Better not believe him
Better not deceive him
