The Man Who Invented Himself Lyrics - Singles - Hitchcock Robyn

He came bursting out of nowhere like a sphere into the sun 

And he cast his light on everything, it was like he never died 

And he landed right on target, but the target rolled away 

And it left him pointing nowhere you could hear the children 

say 

He's the fellow, the man who invented himself 

When you need her love so badly but she's trying to relax 

You can't work it with your fingers so you try it with an axe 

And he taps you on the shoulder; looking out for number one 

Is like drilling for a rainbow or an iceberg in the sun 

He's the fellow, the man who invented himself 

Nobody knows where he's from 

Nobody knows where he's gone and gone and gone 

But he's not here 

When you're waiting for your baby to get back from the moon 

And throw her arms around you, in a fairly quiet lagoon 

Well that loneliness is nothing, just imagine how he feels 

He's the only person in the world who still believes he's real 

He's the fellow, the man who invented himself
