Stranger Than You

At a bar on 43rd at quarter to two

Met my friend the chinese elvis and hoisted a few

He talks like mickey mouse

And sees with x-ray eyes

Lives in a cardboard house

I almost gave him the prize



Until you

Came along - thanks for opening my eyes

Things you do - right or wrong

It should come as no surprise

When you live in a town where there's always somebody

Stranger than you



At 83rd and amsterdam there's an indian jew

Who pierced all his private parts with a permanent screw

He sleeps on a bed of nails

Which came from outer space

And in my taller tales

I gave him pride of place



Until you

Came along - thanks for opening my eyes

Things you do - right or wrong

It should come as no surprise

When you live in a town where there's always somebody stranger than you

Stranger than you



I'm not complaining even though i'm not sure what you are

I've got the strangest feeling (good) about this love bizarre



I could have stayed in bed

H iding from this freaky show

I'm happy that instead

I knew just where to go



When you came along - thanks for opening my eyes

Things you do - right or wrong

It should come as no surprise

When you live in a town where there's always somebody

Stranger than you



Are you a boy - are you a girl

Are you an oyster - are you a pearl

Are you a fish - are you a fowl?

Are you an angel - are you from hell
