Freedy Johnston

Disappointed Man

Did you take your mother's name so you could sleep easily

She took you back too late and now you never leave alone

Did you take that money drawer while she was praying

They said you disappeared

Just like water down a drain

Why'd you call me, must be bad

Disappointed man, where've you been

Hide yourself so well, in this city

Disappointed man

Did you sell your father's ring so you could stay one more night

It shone like his glass eye in the worn velvet case

Did you fill this hired room with guilty words

Your white piano hands flutter like poison birds

Why'd you call me, must be bad

Disappointed man, where've you been

Hide yourself so well, in this city

Disappointed man, where've you been

Disappointed man, where've you been

Disappointed man
