Martha's madman Songtext

Martha's Madman

Martha has a madman
Standing hidden in the shadows
He's got a long curved Turkish dagger
With a bejewelled handle

He's tellin? her the world is full of freaks and geeks and simples and he's
Hiding like a leprechaun under stones and in the ripples
In the pool of time she thought she knew it ? but someone threw a stone into it
Which breaks the surface and it's makin? her nervous and it's true
What can she do - yes it's true - what can she do
Martha yes I guess you'll have to wait around - another thousand years

Martha's getting? nervous as she wanders
Through his valley
Where thes hadows always frightening
And the whispers tell her stories
