John Wesley Harding - A Fan Speaks Lyrics
I met ray davies in a danish airportTurned out to be a real nice guyHe said keep writing your songs, manAs long as you canAnd I think that was good adviceBut actually he didnt quite say thatI added that word manIm just following his good wordsBut of course Im a very big fanAnd I was just trying to make this thing scanI met many a famous personIm not gonna drop any namesSure, I did mention rayWhen I started to playBut thats cos he is a credit to fameUnlike a few I could mentionWho actually quite freaked me outThey treated me like I was one of those guysWho carries a small gun aboutSo congratulations to those of youWho feel the need to congratulate your heroesIt may be tense for both of youBut Im sure they appreciate the gestureBut commiserations to souls that are lostWho feel that murder is a way to get their love acrossGreat God above keep the people we loveFrom those merely seeking attentionYes, I know what its like to be botheredAnd I know what its like to be tiredBut you gotta hideIn some kinda disguiseTo be famous and yet be walked bySo, stars, watch your manners around meYou dont have to talk to me longI may not pull a gun out on youBut I might write you into this songSo, congratulations to those of youWho feel the need to congratulate your heroesIf someone means a lot to youIt surely rates a mentionBut commiserations to souls that are lostWho feel that killing is a way to get their love acrossGreat God above, keep the stars that we loveFrom those merely seeking attention
