Strangeways |
| strange |
| strange |
| i was born into |
| confusion |
| my mother said to me when you |
| become a man you’ll understand |
| but it’s still a mystery |
| and if you want to get ahead |
| get some decent clothes |
| the only way to make it dress the part |
| that gets right up my nose |
| and it think to myself in this river of doubt |
| this is something i can do without |
| but strangeways is what i got |
| the indians are coming |
| i saw it on tv |
| they’re 20,000 strong |
| but they always get depleted by the cavalry |
| salvation is at hand it’s guaranteed |
| just send a donation straight to god 1−800 toll free |
| and i think to myself in this academy of fear |
| where am i going what am i doing here |
| but strangeways is all i got |
| have you seen the headlines |
| princess engaged |
| 3 million out of work |
| but that’s on the 2nd page |
| the alien has landed |
| finger in his ear |
| can’t hear a word i am saying |
| but that ain’t such a bad idea |
| and i think to myself in this cradle of lust |
| ashes to ashes and dust to dust |
| but strangeways is all you |
| get |
