We journeyed to Belfast
To see the Van the man
Europa hotel, wonderful! Grand
As we talked to the locals, It soon became clear
Not everyone thought t'was a great idea

We were told don't expect to be entertained
He won't say a word, he'll just sing and play
And don't expect him to call out for hits
He'll play what he wants
What he thinks fits for the time

Try to understand Van the man
His mind it don't sit still
He toils each day to bring us joy
So take him as he is

43 albums, as much as Neil Young
With wonderful songs on everyone
A lifetime of work
A soundtrack of life
And never afraid to write a song with a knife

Try to understand Van the man
His mind it don't sit still
He toils each day to bring us joy
So take him as he is

That night we went to see the show
Lovely front row seats
I adored the music and the players
They never missed a beat
I didn't hear my favourite song
But that was quite alright
For me, I had a grand old time
that lovely winter night

Try to understand Van the man
His mind it don't sit still
He toils each day to bring us joy
So take him as he is

The next day on the train we heard
Some ladies and their chat
About the man we all called Van
And what they thought of that
He's a dirty, filthy man they said
He lives close by to me
He sits in the caf with his back to the world
He doesn't want to be seen
So please understand
He's got his own plan
And he don't need you to approve

Try to understand Van the man
His mind it don't sit still
He toils each day to bring us joy
So take him as he is
