..static man
ya we were around the gates of the Acropolis
and we were walking down the street, and there was this old man
with coffee coloured skin and like black eyes and lots of hair
but he wore a big long overcoat, and it was hot like a hot day
and he had this big thick overcoat, and I heard,,
this static,,,,,, really loud
I guess it was coming from his pocket it was like sthsssththzzth
and i'm like what?, hes not doing it for some kind of show
at first i thought hes crazy, like some kind of nut
and then i listened for a second, and i stood there
and i thought whats going on
I heard motor cars, scooters i heard horns and dogs,
and heard kids screaming kicking balls
and i heard all this noise
I thought id get closer to him,
just a little bit, and i didnt want to make a scene
I was just curious, i heard this static, and it made sense
he wasnt crazy he was brilliant
he cancels it all out with his sthssssththz coming from his coat
so im walking away and im thinking wow sththsthtzz
and ,,you dont throw him money, you dont ,,,
maybe you might give him a banana,
so I dug into my pocket, i thought jeez, theres my camera
do i take a picture? it wouldnt make sense cause you couldnt hear
sthsththsthzz
so I took the batteries out of my camera
walked over to him, said hello, dropped them into his pocket
static man
