Stranger Than You Lyrics - Joe Jackson

At a bar on 43rd at 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 

 

Until 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 

 

At 83rd 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 

 

Until 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 

 

I'm not complaining even though I'm not sure what you are 

I've got the strangest feeling (good) about this love bizarre 

 

I could have stayed in bed 

Hiding from this freaky show 

I'm happy that instead 

I knew just where to go 

 

When 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 

 

Are you a boy, are you a girl 

Are you an oyster, are you a pearl 

Are you a fish, are you a fowl 

Are you an angel, are you from hell
