The Stranger in Our Town

There's a stranger in our town

he's got a burning eye

he wants to get off on you...

The last time that he was here

he had a roving eye

he smiled as he got off on you...

Don't face me with that sad face

because, you lost that glorious grace

you will always be coming back to this place,

There's a stranger, in our town

There's a stranger, pullin' you around

There's a stranger, in our town

There's a stranger,

and he's gonna break your heart

and then get off on you...

There's a stranger in our town

pulls out a punk's spinal cord

piss and blood on the sidewalk of hearts...

This stranger in our town

lives in tunnels beneath hell

lives in tunnels way down below your heart...

push it in and push it out

you already know what it's all about

and you'll be begging as usual without any doubt,

There's a stranger, in our town

There's a stranger, followin' you around

There's a stranger whose in our town (who's)

There's a stranger,

and he's gonna break your heart

and then get off on you...

(solos: 1st - Kid Congo, 2nd - Mustang Dave)

So, I walk smile like he smiles

I walk just like he walks

my right hand to my face like this...

This stranger in our town

he once was in another town

with insects on his face like this...

with names that are just like names

and pictures from the rear of trains

what you want will always be the same,

There's a stranger, in our town

There's a stranger, pullin' you around

There's a stranger, in our town

There's a stranger,

and he's gonna break your heart

and then get off on you...

Stranger in our town

stranger he got a burning eye

he got insects on his face like this

but, he is such a strange strange stranger

he is such a strange strange stranger...
