Martin Decent Lyrics - Waterboys

Martin Decent came to play, came to play, came to play 

On a bright and winter's day 

Turned his coat in the morning 

Martin Decent spoke out loud, spoke out loud, 

Told his tale to the listening cloud 

Then he turned his coat in the morning 

Ate his greens and his rhubard raw 

Chewed his food with a vigorous jaw 

Wrote down he all he heard and saw

Martin Decent sang along, sang along, sang along 

Leant his voice to the children's song 

Then he turned his coat in the morning 

Told a few little lily-white lies 

Hid the truth behind his eyes 

Nobody knew he was in disguise 

Martin Decent danced a lot, danced a lot, danced a lot 

Struck the pose for a photograph 

Then he turned his coat in the morning 

Photos 

Martin Decent went back home, went back home, went back home 

Slept like a log in a bed of his own 

Then he turned his coat in the morning 

Yes he did! 

Hey! FUck him! Roll him in manure!
