There's a man up on the mountains so high Touching sky And the word is going round he's insane People say He is working out details of secret plans Silly rumours but oh how they fear that man World of whispers, tell your stories and lies In disguise When their echoes reach his door he'll descry Distant fire See the man safely looking down from the clouds He's got nothing to hide from the roaring crowd I've heard them speaking words of panic Frightened of someone they banned Keeping rifles at the ready Spreading news that they don't understand He'll be back in the night taking sweet revenge
