He was a most
peculiar man
That's what
Mrs. Riordan says
and she should know
She lived upstairs
from him
She said he was a
most peculiar man
He was a most
peculiar man
He lived alone
within a house
within a room
Within himself
a most
peculiar man
He had no 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
Sa.......turday
He turned on the gas
and he went to sleep
With the windows closed
so he'd never wake up
To a silent world
in 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?"
