Ele era um homem pobre, porém um gênio He was a poor man, though he was genius Ouviriam eles a esse homem louco Would they listen to the crazy man Eles o ajudariam até o final Would they help him to his end Ele era um homem alto, pele pálida e com as costas quebradas He was a tall man, pale skin and broken back E ninguém o conhecia, embora ele fosse um gênio And no-one knew him, though he was genius Eles o temiam, o prenderam They feared him, locked him away E em silêncio ele rezava And in silence would he pray
Ele vivia sozinho, embora muitas vozes falassem He lived alone, though many voices spoke Ele encontrou paz, no seu mundinho He found peace, in his little world Então eles o surraram, até o seu fim So they beat him, to his end Ele jaz esquecido He lays forgotten Pele morta e pescoço quebrado Dead skin and broken neck E ninguém o conheceu And no-one knew him Embora ele fosse um gênio Though he was genius
Quem era ele, aquele homem louco Who was he, that crazy man Apenas um perdedor, até o fim Just a loser, to the end
