A Man Looked at me Strange Today
It Happens !
A man looked at me strange today,
for what reason I cannot say,
perhaps a whim, perhaps a cry,
perhaps some dust upon his eye,
upon the reason my mind does stray,
but a man looked at me strange today.
Had my beast become unchained,
had my nose ran, undrained?,
had he meant it for some other,
maybe I should have ran for cover,
for I’m a male, straight, I have to say,
but a man looked at me strange today.
Perhaps he meant to rob me blind,
It keeps praying upon my mind,
perhaps he recognised my face,
but his …. I cannot place,
find out some day, I may,
why that man looked at me strange today.
