The Greatest Living Englishman (Coda) - David Sylvian
Lyrics by:David Sylvian/Otomo Yoshihide/Tetuzi Akiyama/Sachiko M/Toshimaru Nakamura
Composed by:David Sylvian/Otomo Yoshihide/Tetuzi Akiyama/Sachiko M/Toshimaru Nakamura
Produced by:David Sylvian
And the love that he engendered
Would never be enough
For him to feel alive
Warm and tender
He'd shut himself outside
Not a fake nor a sham
But dug in deep and fighting
The world could not embrace a man
With so much self in his writing
And he was never gonna be
The greatest living english man
He had ideas above his station
Minor virtues go unmentioned
Little england you fit like a straight jacket
Hemmed by the genius of others
He said to conquer
The world is not to leave a trace
Remove even the shadow
Of the memory of your face
A grey of no significance
