Madness , Michael Caine.
Tabbed by Mike McConnell.

C/Ab/Bb/Gb/Fsus4/F
We'll get ya ya ya
We'll get ya ya ya

I am Michael Caine

C Ab
He's walking where I'm afraid I don't know
G Bb
I see the firemen jumping from the windows
Gb F
There's panic and I hear somebody scream
Ahh!

He picks up useless paper and puts it in my pocket
I'm trying very hard to keep my fingers clean
I can't remember, tell me what's his name?

My name Michael Caine

C G-C F-C C6 G7
And all I wanted was a word or photograph to keep at home
C G-C F-C C6 G7
And all I wanted was a word or photograph to keep

The sun is laughing, it's another broken morning
I see a shadow and call out to try and warn him
He didnt seem to hear just turned away

Bb/C/Eb/D/C/Bb/Eb/D/Bb/Gb/F/Ab/E/Ebsus4/Eb
The quiet fellow follows and points his finger straight at you
He had to sacrifice his pride yes, and throw it all away

I am Michael Caine

And all I wanted was a word or photograph to keep at home
And all I wanted was a word or photograph to keep

His days are numbered he walks round and round in circles
There is no place he can ever call his own
He seems to jump at the sound of the phone

Staring out the window there's nothing he can now do
All he wanted was to remain sane
He cant remember his own name

My name is Michael Caine

And all I wanted was a word or photograph to keep at home
And all I wanted was a word or photograph to keep

To me it sounds obviously like they (a fan) are meeting Michael Caine and singing about how they met him, and he gave them autographs, photos, etc. He is stuck in a signing, trying to stay sane around mad fans, scared by them all. Forgets his name as he signs it so often, its second nature.

I don't think it's anything to do with Michael Caine really. It sounds to me like the story of a man who's losing his mind, possibly to senile dementia, and the author is trying to spend some time with him and maybe get a photograph before the guy is completely doolally.
