lyrics

With no name or number
John Doe fought for his life
For one day he was someone
But then he went & survived

About twenty six, or twenty seven
Almost six feet tall
With broken teeth in a baggy tee shirt
Under a cloth of blood

Without a name or an address
Had no ID at all
Well, on the news (I think that) all they said was
It was a hit & run

That poor sap had his fifteen
on the one night when he lie

But at twenty eight (his face made) a different smile
Behind distant eyes
He retook his name (but found he) had lost charisma
& missed his time to shine

But still he plays & keeps on writing
With no good reason why
He sure wasn't great in the first place
But now he's barely alright
