While shopping around in Wilmington last week, I picked up James Blunt’s cd…I love it. I can’t stop listening to it. It’s so mellow. I bought it for the song “You’re Beautiful” because I couldn’t get the song out of my head. That’s not even the song I’m listening to now…Out of My Mind is my favorite right now…
These are the lyrics:
Judging by the look on the organ-grinder,
He’ll judge me by the fact that my face don’t fit.
It’s touching that the monkey sits on my shoulder.
He’s waiting for the day when he gets me,
But I don’t need no alibi – I’m a puppet on a string.
I just need this stage to be seen.
We all need a pantomime to remind us what is real.
Hold my eye and know what it means.
I’m out of my mind.
Judging by the look on the organ-grinder,
He’ll judge me by the fact that my face don’t fit.
It’s touching that the monkey sits on my shoulder.
He’s waiting for the day when he gets me,
But I won’t be your concubine – I’m a puppet not a whore.
I just need this stage to be seen.
Won’t you be a friend of mine to remind me what is real?
Hold my heart and see that it bleeds.
I’m out of my mind.
Listen to it, if you get a chance.
