Before there were junk stores, before there was junk

The world was transformed; a crowd gathered round

Pressed against his window so they could be the first

The crowd at his window went back to their homes

Meet James Ensor
Belgium's famous painter

| Well, it's a song about James Ensore, the relativly famous artist. It's a few basic facts about his life and times. I guess. . . | |
