lyrics

The saddest man is sitting on the roof
He’s 6 foot 4 and dressed in black
Watch him fall sideways, watch him tumble
Down to the bushes on his back
The saddest man is blowing in the wind
The saddest man hangs from a tree
He holds the branch until his arms give out
And he falls like fruit into the creek
He rode his bicycle into a canal
With arms outstretched he holds the stones
He builds a boat now, it’s 13 feet long
He’ll cross the Atlantic on his own
His mother wakes
She has seen his death
Ten months pass and the boat is seen
It’s floating vertically now
The saddest man is nowhere to be found
No one could save him where he drowned
No one could save him where he drowned...
