A Quiet Man Electric Six

I'm making hardcore moves
Give me that fucking microphone
Unless the weather improves
I'll drift along in a sea of known unknowns
Shuffling my papers and my salivary glands
The whole world a stage and I'm on stage
I got the whole world in my hands

But I'm a quiet man, I'm such a quiet man
Camera-shy and pee-shy
The furthest thing from inspiring

What a glorious feeling to be standing here amongst all of you
I only wish my mama could've been here to see me up here tonight

I never house an animal
Without thinking of its needs
I never create a manimal
Without understanding how it bleeds
But I'm a quiet man
A peaceful unassuming man
I much prefer to remain mute

[Spoken]
I really don't have much to say
And I don't know what you think I saw out there that night but
Let me assure you that mum's the word
I'm not gonna go trying to be a hero like Bobby in safety and oversight
And go saying things I shouldn't say, no siree
And I know he would like to say a few words here tonight but
The Government had him killed
And I see his lovely wife-widow, Janice here tonight
She's got a long difficult road ahead of her now
Let's tell her how we'll always be there for her
And buy her a gin and tonic at the cash bar with a twist of lime
If you don't get a little choked up just thinking about all that
Well then you ain't got a soul, buddy
Oh and by the way
