There was a time I liked him, now I don't know what to say
When I see him coming, I just look the other way
Ah, he's dangerous
There's a sparkle in his eyes when they should be dull and grey
Oh

He's got an air of confidence, goes out on his own
Has a very few friends and doesn't use a phone
Ah, mysterious
Thank God the law is watching, now they'll drag him from his home
Oh, oh

Once he was a lovely lad, compliant and tame
Something must've happened to turn him insane
He lost his way, and now he's full-grown
He's a lunatic with a mind of his own

Once he was a lovely lad, compliant and tame
Something must've happened to turn him insane
He lost his way, and now he's full-grown
He's a lunatic with a mind of his own

It's not as if he barks under a waxing gibbous moon
It's another kind of madness, same old words, a different tune
Ah, it's scary
Not long before the Ministry is bursting his balloon
Oh, oh
