The alien has landed
“When you become a man you'll understand”
One eight hundred, toll free
But strange ways is all you get
But it's still a mystery
And I think to myself in this river of doubt
And if you want to get ahead
And I think to myself in this cradle of lust
Where am I going, what am I doing here?
But they always get depleted by the cavalry
Three million out of work
But strange ways is all I got
Get some decent clothes
They're twenty thousand strong
Aaa, aaa
The Indians are coming
I saw it on TV
(Princess engaged)
(Strange ways)
But that's on the second page
The only way to make it
Just send a donation straight to God
Strange
Aaa, aaa
Finger in his ear
Have you seen the headlines?
Can't hear a word I am saying
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
But that ain't such a bad idea
And I think to myself in this academy of fear
Dress the part that gets right up my nose
Aaa, aaa
But, strange ways is what I got
My mother said to me
I was born into confusion
It's guaranteed
This is somethin' I can do without
(Strange ways)
Salvation is at hand
