Stranger in my street he sings his songs under a tree
Outside a neighbourhood estate I wonder, why-y is he still
Singing at me
Call him what you want I named him "Barry the Faux Pas"
Because he'll scream into the sky
I wonder, why-y,
I wonder, why-y,
I wonder, why-y,
is he still screaming at me?
and underneath that wisdom tree did Barry say to me
Whatever you do, whatever you say, however it's done,
whatever becomes is gonna' happen to you
Break
Only when it's dark you'll hear him roaring in the park
To an optimistic boy who wonders, why-y
he wonders, why-y,
he wonders, why-y
is he still screaming at me
N/C (Palm Mute)
he doesn't do just what he's told he wonders why-y,
he wonders why-y,
he wonders why-y
is he still screaming at me?
And underneath that wisdom tree did Barry say to me
Whatever you do, whatever you say, however it's done,
whatever becomes is gonna' happen to you
