True story. Travelled with a doe-eyed Israeli who was just an irresistible force when it came to women. For a while I envied and then slowly came to realise that he was something super-moral. The trail of short-lived conquests produced no casualties, there was no ego apparently at work; he just did what he did and he did me no harm, on the contrary. He was basically very human and yet unusually so
lyrics
THE SPREADER
He was a handsome dude, with a one-track mind
A piece of tail, wasn’t hard to find
When the morning came, they were cast aside
A minor sleight to his boundless pride
She was a lonely girl, in a foreign place
When the morning came, a smiling face
Though cast aside, a fast joyride
She couldn’t hide, she didn’t mind
And some called him a sinner
Most thought he must be bad
This man was close to saintly
The best friend that you could have
And the secret’s in the eyes I see - he treats all people equally
His attention comes for free, the only way he can be
It was a crowded train, on a two day haul
When Benares came, he’d had the call
In the morning shade, not a promise made
A ghost is laid, a path repaved
And some called him a sinner
Most thought he must be bad
This man was close to saintly
The best friend that you could have
And some called him a sinner
Most thought he must be bad
This man was close to saintly
The best friend that you could ever have
