Lyrics

I used to work in a store
Where they would stand me in the window
So the shoppers walkin by could see
Brand new clothes on me
And if they liked them they would buy them
For themselves and take them home
But I would stay in the store

I am a Mannequin Man
I don’t eat or sleep or comb my plastic hair I just stare
I will never tire and I will never get the virus
I am a Mannequin Man

Then they had to close the store
When Rona came upon the world
So the shoppers that would shop would be
Safe from the disease
Then they put me in a closet
And the employees all went home
But I stayed in the store

I am a Mannequin Man
I don’t eat or sleep or comb my plastic hair I just stare
I will never tire and I will never get the virus
I am a Mannequin Man

Now I work in a restaurant
Where I am seated at a table
So the maskers all can see
Mannequins like me
We make them feel less lonely
While they eat til they go home
But we stay in the restaurant

I am a Mannequin Man
I don’t sleep or eat or comb my plastic hair I just stare
I will never tire and I will never get the virus
I am a Mannequin Man
