You are a rarity

Your eyes say wisdom

Your skin says frailty

Your mouth says listen

Your voice a cello

Your words speak volumes

In the night I run for

Like Leonard Cohen's



Since you were invented

Since you came along

No one's even attempted

Too come close to the beauty of your song

No hit on the radio

No one knows who you are

No big deal with a video

So you'll never gonna be a big star



You aren't the attending

Needings a presence of company's pretending

To protect their investments

While they suck the gristle

Of the bones of you art

Unfaithful and fickle

Some dog didn't squirt



They'll say you're a rarity

And sleep in your bed

And strained all your purity

And leave you for dead

They'll call you little honey

They'll write you a check

Seduce you with money

And fuck your respect



For offering a small glimpse

Through your secret door

Of your intellect and brilliance

You deserve so much more

Cos you you're a rarity

Your eyes say wisdom

Your skin says frailty

You're mouth says listen
