I once knew a man but I can't remember his face. He had a mustache in one hand a razor in the left. Cheeks of a baby waiting to find his place. I once knew a man with the legs of a statue. He had a hammer in one hand A rose in the left Taking beauty as the path to reach greater virtue. I once knew a man I once knew a man I once knew a man with a whisper of twenty cannons He had a megaphone in one hand duct tape in the left Conformity silences his words like phantoms. I once knew a man with the gut of a clown. He had a bongo in one hand a trophy in the left. The beat lifts him up while he blends with the ground. I once knew a man with a brain for a heart. He had a stake in one hand a pistol in the left. Tricky, he knew either one would grant a new start. Yes I once knew a man I once knew a man.

I Once Knew A Man
I once knew a man but I can't remember his face. He had a mustache in one hand a razor in the left. Cheeks of a baby waiting to find his place. I once knew a man with the legs of a statue. He had a hammer in one hand A rose in the left Taking beauty as the path to reach greater virtue. I once knew a man I once knew a man I once knew a man with a whisper of twenty cannons He had a megaphone in one hand duct tape in the left Conformity silences his words like phantoms. I once knew a man with the gut of a clown. He had a bongo in one hand a trophy in the left. The beat lifts him up while he blends with the ground. I once knew a man with a brain for a heart. He had a stake in one hand a pistol in the left. Tricky, he knew either one would grant a new start. Yes I once knew a man I once knew a man.
