The Shadow's Figure
Do you see the strange man
Hiding behind that post?
He jumps at the slow breeze
Trembles like a scared ghost
Do you ever hear him
Make any sound at all?
He won't open his mouth
And stays close to the wall
Do you know what he does
Over there all alone?
He's gone when the lights go
But when its dark, he's grown
I wonder if he likes it
In that quiet, small space
Or if he'd quite rather
Walk all around my place
One day I should like to
Tell him nicely to leave
He seems odd, unpleasant-
Well, from what I perceive.
