Ferdinand standing in the tower thinkin' how to get the power |
| [00:12.94] |
Empress knows that it would cost her |
| [00:15.81] |
For Ferdinand The Imposter |
| [00:18.87] |
Came to me to make a deal |
| [00:21.27] |
Dressed like General Butterfield |
| [00:24.71] |
I couldn't wait to thank him for the stuffed birds and rubber door |
| [00:30.02] |
|
| [00:30.90] |
Donated to him from the poor |
| [00:36.72] |
It's just his game |
| [00:39.65] |
And he carries no shame |
| [00:43.01] |
But he done nobody wrong |
| [00:48.64] |
He knew he didn't belong |
| [00:51.41] |
But he went along |
| [00:53.83] |
|
| [00:54.99] |
Looking to see if there's somebody else he'd like to be |
| [01:00.68] |
|
| [01:05.94] |
Benny the Barber, Luke and me |
| [01:08.80] |
Passed out tickets cautiously |
| [01:11.91] |
To see the burning of the soup |
| [01:14.55] |
Down at Lucy's chicken coop |
| [01:17.39] |
Then of course Ferdinand |
| [01:20.50] |
Started out doing Charlie Chan |
| [01:23.35] |
That last atlas honkey's fall |
| [01:26.34] |
He says he's gonna do them all |
| [01:28.96] |
|
| [01:29.65] |
A voice just said he's not for real |
| [01:35.61] |
But it's just his game |
| [01:38.38] |
And he carries no shame |
| [01:41.99] |
But he done nobody wrong |
| [01:47.56] |
He knew he didn't belong |
| [01:50.57] |
But he went along |
| [01:52.45] |
|
| [01:54.08] |
Lookin' to see if there's somebody |
| [01:57.85] |
Else he'd like to be |
| [02:01.39] |
Mainly free |
| [02:03.89] |
|
| [02:06.02] |
Yes it's hard, oh oh, don't you know |
| [02:10.17] |
To be somebody that you don't even know |
| [02:15.90] |
But he's friendly, yes he's kind |
| [02:21.82] |
I can't help wonderin' why they'd want to change his mind |
| [02:26.91] |
|
| [02:28.66] |
Got a message in the mail |
| [02:31.43] |
Ferdinand was thrown in jail |
| [02:34.19] |
I left the snow with Abigail |
| [02:37.01] |
Went on down to fix his bail |
| [02:39.91] |
They locked him in a gunny sack |
| [02:42.86] |
His hands were tied behind his back |
| [02:45.84] |
He claimed he was a Doukborner |
| [02:48.64] |
But they never heard of that in Baltimore |
| [02:51.65] |
|
| [02:52.03] |
The police said he'd better go home |
| [02:58.31] |
And he went back alone |
| [03:01.10] |
Back to the snow |
| [03:03.91] |
But still he done nobody wrong |
| [03:09.95] |
He just didn't belong |
| [03:12.96] |
But he went along |
| [03:14.88] |
|
| [03:16.33] |
Lookin' to see if there's somebody |
| [03:20.25] |
Else he'd like to be |
| [03:23.88] |
Mainly free |
| [03:26.60] |
