People are strange when you're a stranger
Faces look ugly when you're alone
Women seem wicked when you're unwanted
Streets are uneven when you're down
When you're strange
Faces come out of the rain
When you're strange
No one remembers your name
When you're strange
When you're strange
When you're strange
People are strange when you're a stranger
Faces look ugly when you're alone
Women seem wicked when you're unwanted
Streets are uneven when you're down
When you're strange
Faces come out of the rain
When you're strange
No one remembers your name
When you're strange
When you're strange
When you're strange
When you're strange
Faces come out of the rain
When you're strange
No one remembers your name
When you're strange
When you're strange
When you're strange

Under blue moon I saw you
So soon you'll take me
Up in your arms
Too late to beg you or cancel it
Though I know it must be the killing time
Unwillingly mine
Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him
In starlit nights I saw you
So cruelly you kissed me
Your lips a magic world
Your sky all hung with jewels
The killing moon
Will come too soon
Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him
Under blue moon I saw you
So soon you'll take me
Up in your arms
Too late to beg you or cancel it
Though I know it must be the killing time
Unwillingly mine
Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him
Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him
You give yourself to him
La la la la la...
Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him
La la la la la...
Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him
Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him
La la la la la...

Love, love, love
Love, love, love
Love, love, love
There's nothing you can do that can't be done
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung
Nothing you can say, but you can learn how to play the game
It's easy
Nothing you can make that can't be made
No-one you can save that can't be saved
Nothing you can do, but you can learn how to be you
It's easy
All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need
There's nothing you can know that isn't known
Nothing you can see that isn't shown
Nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be
It's easy
All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need
There's nothing you can do that can't be done
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung
Nothing you can say, but you can learn how to play the game
It's easy
All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need
All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need
I've seen it in your eyes
I've read it in books
Who wants love
Without the looks
I've seen it in your eyes
I've read it in books
Who wants love
Without the looks
Yeah, yeah, yeah
She loves you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And with a love like that
You know you should be glad
How does it feel to be on your own?
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone
Like a rolling stone
Please release me, let me go
I don't love you anymore
I don't love you anymore
They stone you when you want to go to bed
They stone you when they're chopping off your head
Why do I feel so all alone?
Everybody must get stoned
Love, love, love
Love, love, love
Love, love, love
Love, love, love
Get up
Stay on the scene
Like a sex machine
Get up, getup
Stay on the scene
Like a sex machine

I see a red door and I want to paint it black.
No colors anymore, I want them to turn black.
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes,
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes.
I see a line of cars and they're all painted black,
With flowers and my love both never to come back.
Maybe I'll fade away and not have to face the facts,
It's not easy facin' up when your whole world's turnin' black.
I look inside myself and see my heart is black.
I see a red door and I want to paint it black.
I see them turn their heads and quickly look away.
I think that maybe it just happens every day.
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue.
I can not foresee this thing happening to you.
If I look hard enough into the settin' sun,
My love will laugh with me until the mornin' comes.
I see a red door and I want to paint it black.
No colors anymore, I want them to turn black.
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes,
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes.
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted black
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted black
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted black
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted black
Black

Teenage Mary said to Uncle Dave
"I sold my soul, must be saved
Gonna take a walk down to Union Square
You never know who you're gonna find there"
You gotta run, run, run, run, run
Take a drag or two
Run, run, run, run, run
Gypsy Death and you
Tell you whatcha do
Marguerita Passion had to get her fix
She wasn't well, she was getting sick
Went to sell her soul, down to Union Square
Didn't know, thinks she could buy it
And she would run, run, run, run, run
Take a drag or two
Run, run, run, run, run
Gypsy Death and you
Tell you whatcha do
Beardless Harry, what a waste
Couldn't even get a small-town taste
Rode the trolleys down to forty-seven
Figured he was good to get himself to heaven
Cause he had to run, run, run, run, run
Take a drag or two
Run, run, run, run, run
Gypsy Death and you
Tell you whatcha do
Seasick Sarah had a golden nose
Hobnail boots wrapped around her toes
When she turned blue, all the angels screamed
They didn't know they couldn't make the scene
She had to run, run, run, run, run
Take a drag or two
Run, run, run, run, run
Gypsy Death and you
Tell you whatcha do
Take me home
. . .

I knew it musta been some big set-up.
All the Action just would not let up.
It's just a little bit back from the main road
where the silence spreads and the men dig holes.
I start to spin the tale
you complain of my diction
You give me friction
You give me friction
You give me friction
My eyes are like telescopes
I see it all backwards: but who wants hope?
If I ever catch that ventriloquist
I'll squeeze his head right into my fist.
something comes tracking in,
What is it? What's the prediction?
I'll betcha it's friction
I'll betcha it's friction
I'll betcha it's friction
Rattlesnake, get out of the snake pit
Stop this head motion... set the sails.
You know all us boys gonna wind up in jail.
I don't wanna grow up
there's too much contradiction
There's too much friction
There's too much friction
I need friction
F R I C T I O N
Friction
Friction
Friction

I've got a handful of this
What do I do with it?
I've got a barrel of this
What do I do with it?
I do it clean, I do it clean
Do it clean, do it clean
Know what I mean
Do it clean, do it clean
I know what I mean, I mean
Where am I going
Where have I been
Where are you going
Where have you been
I've been here, I've been there
I've been here, there, everywhere
Here there nowhere
Iszy bitzy witzy itzy everywhere
I've been here and I've been there
I'm clean
I had a handful of this
What did I do with it?
I had a barrel of this
What did I do with it?
I did it clean, I did it clean
Do it clean, do it clean
Know what I mean?
Do it clean, do it clean
I know what I mean
