See the man in the bookshop
She is with it in
He walks very slowly
Never stands in crowds
Children stand in wonder
As he turns and walks away
Closely guards the secret
Of the beauty in his eyes
He's the man with the Midas touch
He'll make a bird with just one look
He's the man with the Midas touch
He's got the fury in his eyes
He looks old and innocent
As he shuffles down the street But he is the holy sentinel
That guards the gates of Hades To stop the Lord of darkness
Coming straight from hell
The bringer of disaster
The one who chops the bread
He's the man with the Midas touch
He'll make a bird with just one look
He's the man with the
Midas touch
He's got the fury in his eyes
Until the final conflict
He has to walk the earth
To do the master's bidding And stop the evil force He waits for
Armageddon The Nazarene will come
Rising from the ashes of the fallen world
He's the man with the Midas touch
He'll make a bird with just one look
