A Very Smelly, Grubby Little Oik Lyrics by Caravan

Blind Dog at St. Dunstan’s

1976

Though only 5 foot 4, you could see he was a man among men
Kickin' him to the floor, and his eyes would only water
"Thank you all once again," you could hear him say it in that order now
"Here's to you while you can, start pickin' what you oughta"
Some say he's a little crazy
Bad smell is passing by
Maybe he's living in a haze
But you should see that boy fly
Standing not far away, you could see him with a finger up his nose
Can't bring myself to say what he's doing with the other
Twice in the afternoon, he would come out with his head up in a cloud
Sailing hot air balloons to the people who could bother
His smile'd send your senses reeling
From your toe jam to your head
And his breath'd guarantee the seal
That you would rather be dead
Though he may seem a little crazy
Distasteful to your eye
He may be living in a haze
But you should see that boy fly
Some say he's a little crazy
Bad smell is passing by
You'll change expression on your face
When you just see that boy flyyyy...
