Strangeways Lyrics - The House Of Blue Light - Deep Purple

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
