lyrics

They called him Mad Gerry
And said he wasn't right
They sent him to the brig
For the use of a knife
But they were all fools themselves
He'd watch them all go to hell

And Gerry had a burning
Ache in his heart
His yearning was a madness
To sing and play guitar
On the outside looking in
The fire always raged in him

(Chorus)
And when the music plays
He goes quiet as you like
His foot starts to tap
And the tears fill his eyes
If he could only sing
All the world would be all right
But as it is he just listens
Through the night.

One day Mad Gerry
Threw the madness from his life
He tried to settle down
Luck found him a loving wife
But all the straightest roads are long
And life's not always like a song

And sometimes Mad Gerry
Felt those feelings rise
And all that old madness
Swelled up in his eyes
'Cos Gerry knew he understood
A truth no on around him could

(Chorus)

Gerry raised a family
Oh he's a family man
He buried that old madness
As deep as he can
The mortgage is nearly paid
By all the hours that he slaved

Nowadays Mad Gerry
finds his peace alone
At night in the kitchen
With his radio
When everyone has gone to bed
He lets the music fill his head

(Chorus)
