[Verse 1]
At a bar on Forty Third at a 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
[Chorus]
'Til 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
[Verse 2]
At Eighty Third 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
[Chorus]
'Til 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
At a bar on Forty Third at a 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
[Chorus]
'Til 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
[Verse 2]
At Eighty Third 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
[Chorus]
'Til 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
