Chorus
Meet James Ensor
Belgium's famous painter
Dig him up and shake his hand
Appreciate the man
Verse 1
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
Chorus
To meet James Ensor
Belgium's famous painter
Raise a glass and sit and stare
Understand the man
Verse 2
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
Chorus
Meet James Ensor
Meet James Ensor
Belgium's famous painter
Dig him up and shake his hand
Appreciate the man
