文本歌词

He was a most peculiar man
That's what Mrs Riordan said and she should know
She lived upstairs from him
She said he was a most peculiar man
A most peculiar man
He lived all alone within a house
Within a room within himself
A most peculiar man
Friends he seldom spoke
And no one in turn ever spoke to him
'Cause he wasn't friendly and he didn't care
And he wasn't like them
Oh no he was a most peculiar man
He died last Saturday
Turned on the gas and he went to sleep
With the windows closed so he'd never wake up
To his silent world and his tiny room
And Mrs Riordan says he has a brother somewhere
Who should be notified soon
And all the people said
What a shame that he's dead
But wasn't he a most peculiar man
