The Man Who Came to Stay by The Libertines Lyrics

There's a man who came to stay
The boy he replaced disappeared without a trace
Gave my songs and my style away (Stole all my song and my style away)
Noone would say what they wanted to say
So he was king for a day

If you sail into the sun beware the eyes of green
And if the whole room tells you "you are the one"
I defy you not to believe them, my son

There's a man who came to play
Never showing on time, out of his mind
(diddly doo doo dine)
Every single gig I play
Something's not right inside
Paranoia and pride, nowhere to hide

If you sail into the sun, beware the eyes of green
And if the whole world tells you "you are the one"
You must be hearing those voices again my son
If you sail into the sun, beware the eyes of green
And if its all too much for you my son
Well, I'm here waiting where we began
