I can see very well
  There's a boat on the reef with a broken back
  And I can see it very well
  There's a joke and I know it very well
  It's one of those that I told you long ago
  Take my word I'm a madman don't you know
    Once a fool had a good part in the play
  If it's so would I still be here today
  It's quite peculiar in a funny sort of way
  They think it's very funny everything I say
  Get a load of him, he's so insane
  You better get your coat dear
  It looks like rain
    We'll come again next Thursday afternoon
  The In-laws hope they'll see you very soon
  But is it in your conscience that you're after
  Another glimpse of the madman across the water
    I can see very well
  There's a boat on the reef with a broken back
  And I can see it very well
  There's a joke and I know it very well
  It's one of those that I told you long ago
  Take my word I'm a madman don't you know
    The ground's a long way down but I need more
  Is the nightmare black
  or are the windows painted
  Will they come again next week
  Can my mind really take it
