Meet James Ensor | |
Belgium's famous painter | |
Dig him up and shake his hand | |
Appreciate the man | |
Before there were junk stores | |
Before there was junk | |
He lived with his mother and the torments of Christ | |
The world was transformed | |
A crowd gathered round | |
Pressed against his window so they could be the first | |
To meet James Ensor | |
Belgium's famous painter | |
Raise a glass and sit and stare | |
Understand the man | |
He lost all his friends | |
He didn't need his friends | |
He lived with his mother and repeated himself | |
The world has forgotten | |
The world moved along | |
The crowd at his window went back to their homes | |
