Songtexte Hard And Tenderly - The Residents
They
called
me
"Mr.
X,
Indeed",
the
special
ones
that
saw
so
deep
inside
The
souls
of
those
who
were
so
lonely.
I
was
down
beneath
the
bottom,
when
My
vacant
staring
caught
them
gaily
parading
up
and
down
the
Street-followed
by
some
stinking
masses,
freeing
fumes
and
giving
gasses
To
the
brown
and
nearly
worn
out
air.
But
they
had
that
certain
presence
Like
the
ether
or
the
essence
of
the
cleansing
upper
atmosphere.
Laughing,
Loving,
and
without
a
doubt,
they
simply
strode
about
the
streets
that
Other
creatures
left
alone.
I
ran
across,
myself
compulsive,
with
the
Feeling
of
a
pulsing
drum
that
pounded
underneath
my
skin.
A
tingling
in
My
tangled
brain
was
screaming
that
this
was
insane,
but
it
also
told
me,
"Touch
it,"
too.
"Stand
aside,"
I
told
the
masses,
and
with
that
I
made
my
passage
frome
Lonely
to
the
only
side.
Openly
they
smiled
to
greet
me,
like
they
always
Knew
they'd
meet
me
somewhere
walking
up
and
down
the
road.
I
knew
I
must
Appear
as
someone
far
beyond
the
common
come-on,
so
I
could
not
say
my
nae
Was
Ed.
So
I
said,
"I'm
Mr.
X
who
wants
to
come
and
who
expects
to
help
And
guide
your
efforts
to
succeed."
They
laughed
a
little
bit
at
me,
and
Then
said,
"Mr.
X-Indeed,"
and
hugged
me
somehow
hard
and
tenderly.
