I met an old man today who stared
As I tried to wash my hair
He seemed fascinated by it all
Quite content to stand and stare
The heat of the water made me quite cautious
Maybe felt hot with the cool of the day
But my little man he plonked in his finger
And then he just smiled and walked away
(I think he didn’t know whether I was finding the water too hot or too cold)
