Mr. Soul

Neil Young

Oh, hello Mr. Soul
I dropped by
To pick up a reason
For the thought that I caught that my head
Is the event of the season
Why in crowds just a trace of my face
Could seem so pleasin'
I'll cop out to the change
But a stranger is putting the tease on

I was down on a frown
When the messenger brought me a letter
I was raised by the praise of a fan
who said I upset her
Any girl in the world
could have easily known me better
She said, you're strange
But don't change and I let her

In a while will the smile on my face
In a while will the smile on my face
Turn to plaster
Stick around while the clown who is sick
Does the trick of disaster
For the race of my head and my face
Is moving much faster
Is it strange I should change
I don't know why don't you ask her

Is it strange I should change
I don't know why don't you ask her
