Nobody has his own place in the back He keeps it in order a neat little shack And every day he goes down to the beach Looking for a clam or an oyster to eat He said I'm not unhappy there is nothing to fear I'm just trying to disappear It's not unusual the future is clear I'm just trying to disappear
He said I know what I'm doing I know who I am I'm the number one fan of the invisible man He's covered in sweat from his head to his toes But what he's looking for nobody knows lt s not there and it s not here he said I'm just trying to disappear
Nobody stood in the middle of the street Where he drew a chalk outline around his feet Then he smiled and lifted his face to the sky Flapping his arms like he was trying to fly He said I may not make it to that great beyond But I'll never be found with my feet on the ground I'm pretty far gone but I'm still here Can nobody help me to disappear?
Nobody sat on a bench in the park Waiting for the day to turn into the dark Then he waved goodbye to that setting sun And did a little dance when the day was done He said The shadows loom, it will be night soon And the stars will shine over a rising moon I have nothing to lose, I have nothing to fear I'm just trying to disappear
Nobody went for a walk in the rain I lent him my boots and my walking cane The cane they found hanging from a tree But those boots will never walk back to me He's not far oft but he's nowhere near That's obvious but it's not very clear Nobody talks nobody hears He said I'm just trying to disappear
