Jon Gray - The Other Man lyrics

[Verse 1] I wanna be the other man Feathered scarf silver tan Blow out perfect rings of smoke Catch them with velvet gloves I wanna be the special one Pulling rabbits out of hats Juggling with words no one understands A foreign tongue I speak alone In windows i can see myself Being stared at being stalked I have to go incognito And hide myself behind shades [Chorus] And all we talk about is nothing at all We've seen it all We never had a doubt I am the one banging the gong [Verse 2] I am a dream out of life Fake as the nosejobs of your wives Men of honour please beware I'll have my grave next to Fred Astaire's Here I lie as the ancient king Have no sk**s just bells to ring Out in the darkness of my eyes An empty space a place to hide [Chorus] And all we talk about is nothing at all We've seen it all We never had a doubt I am the one banging the gong And all we talk about is nothing at all We've seen it all We never had a doubt I am the one banging the gong [Bridge] And all we talk about And all we talk about Is nothing at all We' ve seen it all Is nothing at all We' ve seen it all Is nothing We' ve seen it all Is nothing at all We' ve seen it all And all we talk about Is nothing at all We' ve seen it all We never had a doubt I am the one banging the gong
