L'Etranger Songtext

von Tuxedomoon

I was born today
There was strangers there
Cut me off
And left me in a chloroformed cell
I yelled and I yelled
But nobody cared
First day at school
I lost my front teeth
Boys beat me up
Cause I wasn't one of them
I fought till I bled
And everyone was scared
Yeah, everyone was scared
It isn't my fault
It isn't my fault
It isn't my fault
That I'm strange

I wasn't good at kickball
I wasn't good at girls
I used to make a habit of peeing in my pants
Cause I was scared and I couldn't dance
And nobody cared but I learned
Today I'm glad to say
I'm just like the rest
Anonyme is best
Anonyme is best
And life grows stranger every day
Has anybody dared to be more than dead
It isn't my fault
It isn't my fault
It isn't my fault
That I'm strange

Mother died today
Or maybe yesterday
I don't know I don't know I don't know
Got to ask my boss to let me go
At the funeral they expected me to cry
Well, I didn't
I don't know why
I don't know how
Everybody's staring at me now
What's gone to their heads
What's gone to their heads
It isn't my fault
It isn't my fault
That I'm strange
I'm strange I'm strange I'm strange
I'm the stranger
