Plot
A Norse runestone is discovered in Western Pennsylvania. The prophecy upon it tells of the Norse great wolf Fenrir (Fenris), and that its release from the stone will bring about Ragnarok --- the end of the world. Archaeologist Sam Stewart and wife Marla find it has some connection to their friend Martin. A young boy named Jacob is haunted by terrifying nightmares of what is to come, and his family explains these dreams through stories from Norse legend, which says that the only one who can destroy Fenrir is Tyr, the Norse god of war, who is prophesied to return to fight the creature.

An ancient prophecy is about to become a modern nightmare.
Fanducci: What's your name, officer?::Strange: It's Strange, Sir.::Fanducci: I don't care how fucking strange it is.::Strange: No Sir, it's officer Strange.
Chief Richardson: I'll tell you what it is, Fanducci. It's a big guy in a bulletproof dog suit.
Marla Stewart: [about the Philadelphia dig] If there's one thing older than Art, it's pornography.
Art Lover: [as Fenrir trashes a Performance Art installation and starts eating the performer] The trouble with this kind of Art is that you can't collect it...
Lars Hagstrom: [Marla has noticed a Christian icon among his antiquities] A contradiction in my design scheme, I admit. There are no atheists in foxholes. And you are in one now!
Lars Hagstrom: [Fenrir towers over him] No beast so fierce without some trace of pity?
Marla Stewart: Could you say one sentence without the word "fuck" in it?::Fanducci: Sorry. Would you like a Pez?::Marla Stewart: No.::Fanducci: Best fucking candy in the world!
Plot
Judith Fontaine (Regina Carrol) is looking for her sister Joanie, who has disappeared into the hippie community of Venice, California. It turns out Joanie has become the victim of Groton (Lon Chaney Jr.), an axe-wielding homicidal maniac working for Dr. Durray (J. Carrol Naish), who is really the last of the Frankensteins and is now running a house of horrors by the beach and is performing experiments on Gorton's victims. One night Count Dracula (Zandor Vorkov) visits the doctor, showing him the original Frankenstein creation that was buried in a nearby graveyard. The doctor revives it and uses it to take revenge on his professional rivals.

Grazbo: You see! You must open your eyes to see things! There's more to come!

Strange: Man, it sure looks real!::Durea: True. All illusions look real or they wouldn't be illusions, would they?
Dracula: And all those who would meddle in the destinies of Frankenstein and Dracula... will see an infernal bloodbath the likes of which has not swept the Earth before!
Dracula: My coffin awaits you becoming immortal in its embrace!
Dracula: No, him! Him! Him! No! Him! Him!

Strange or Strangeness may refer to:
How many wrinkles in a pickle
How many hairs in a head
How many waves in the ocean
How many crumbs in bed
But last but not least, but baby most of all
Why do I mmmumble everytime you call
[Chorus:]
Because you're strange to me baby
Oh, you're good to me mama
Well, I admit you are strange
But baby please don't change
I know I belong with you
How many bubbles in soap
How many chewings in gum
How many rolls in a wheel
Where did eyeballs come from
But last but not least
But baby most of all
Why do I mmmumble everytime you call
[Chorus]
How many blanks in a blanket
How many cuts in a knife
How strong is a bedbug
And how deep is his bite
But last but not least
But baby most of all
Why do I mmmumble everytime you call
[Chorus]
Stange you got a big double head and one bloodshot eye
Strange you got five double chins...???
Strange your knees look like the knees on a billy goat
Strange you got two left legs ...???
Strange there's something wrong with you I don't know what it is
I laid there feeling sorry for myself
In a bed of Kleenex
Stuffing chocolates in my mouth
On the phone with my best friend
Cussing my ex
He broke my heart
Felt like the world had ended
I cried myself to sleep
Thinking I can't get over him
Strange, talk about luck
I woke up and the sun was shining
Strange, I ought to be in bed
With my head in the pillow crying
Over us, but I hate, hate love
Strange
Got half a mind
To spend my whole pay check
On one of those dresses
The strapless black ones
That are so famous
For teaching lessons
Drop by his place
Pick up the rest of my things
He'll tell me I look good
I'll laugh and say, yeah [incomprehensible]
Strange, talk about luck
I woke up and the sun was shining
Strange, I ought to be in bed
With my head in the pillow crying
Over us, but I hate, hate love
Strange, strange
Strange, talk about luck
I woke up and the sun was shining
Strange, I ought to be in bed
With my head in the pillow crying
Over us, but I hate, hate love
Strange
Strange, talk about luck
I woke up and the sun was shining
Strange, strange
There's something strange going on tonight
There's something going on that's not quite right
Michael's nervous and the lights are bright
There's something going on that's not quite right
There's something going on that wasn't here before
Keep your eyes glued to the floor
There's something strange going on tonight
There's something going on that's not quite right
There's something going on that wasn't here before
Keep your eyes glued to the floor
No one's going to say goodnight
There's something going on that's not quite right
Strange I keep loving you why can't I forget
Strange I keep wanting you needing you and yet
You only bring heartaches strange but when you call
With open arms I take you back that's the strangest thing of all
Strange can't get over you oh I see you everywhere
Strange how your mem'ry clings strange why I still care
But when I start forgetting you get lonely so you call
And with open arms I take you back that's the strangest thing of all
Strange how the chains of love so strong strange your game of love oh so wrong
Why must I go on loving cry each time you call
strange
thought i knew you well
thought i had read the sky
thought i had read a change
in your eyes to strange
woke up to a world
that i am not a part
except when i can play
it's stranger
after all what were you really looking for
and i wonder when will i learn
blue isn't red everybody knows this
and i wonder when will i learn
when will i learn
guess i was in
deeper than i thought i was
if i have enough love
for the both of us
"just stay"
you said "we'll build a nest"
so i left my life
tried on your friends
tried on your opinions.
so when the bridges froze
and you did not come home
i put our snowflake
under a microscope
after all what was i really looking for
and i wonder when will i learn
maybe my wish knew better than i did
and i wonder so strange now
i'm finally in
the party has begun
it's not like i can't feel you still
but strange what i will leave behind
you call me one more time
Strange, how you dangerous eyes compel me, although they
tell me me to beware
and it's so strange, how you change every dull humdrum
thing, making it something sweet and rare
is this a game your enjoying with me - or are you toying
with me in this romance
if by some chance you'll arrange to return even half of
my love, i won't ask why love - it's so strange
The strangest, straight derangest
Strange

Strange
Uh, Midwest side, hit that Bombay
Let's get it on, raps new phenomenon
Hit 'em up with the flippers and rupture your dome
Me calm down, never you say me song sound like butt
You say, I'm washed up? Nigga, what, what, what?
This is when I kick, kick it with this rhythmic syphilis
Fuck dem 9 rhymes, make 'em go blind every time
On that cannabis and it is not for the mini mind
But the mind of a gage high
On stage 'cause minimum wage had me in a maximum rage
Page masta scrap, the velosoraptor of rap
See me, come tight like a pig in a bikini
Please, all emcees know I be on my Q's and P's
Even Run D.M.C., I'm a deadly disease
High voltage, just take a look at the psychosis
Deranged, I claimed the man's plain atrocious
Flows be constant, I rock from here to Wisconsin
My killer flow makes me jerk my Johnson
He's strange and I like it
He's strange
(All day all night)
Just the way he is
(Uh, like this)
Tecca Nina, Tecca Nina
(Wassup?)
Why you so damn psycho?
(Couldn't tell ya baby, I'm makin' rella baby, flippin' hella baby)
(Ask your nearest fortune teller, baby, strange)
Mushroom headed keeps me prophetic
But that slow motion makes me see life like a movie
The Bombay brother with the ganja stick
It'll get you stuck if you let
Calm me, but no calming Aron Dante
Just call me the strange or strange Bombay
Distinguishing the kcuf from tihs
From hip hop comes this
Apocalypse got control of your hips
A, it's beautimous, hella rap metamorphosis
MC corpsesis around me
They found me jacuzzin' with my sorceresses
Fire up the Vega and get blowed
And roll to a spot with Biancs
Then bust hoes in their olds
So different they wanna kill me like they killed Bruce Lee
What? On the set, no shet
Saw my Bianc with bagets
Midwest flex flows, likes to sex those
Little wet flesh holes, insane brain frames
Never that plane Jane
He's strange and I like it
He's strange
(All day all night)
Just the way he is
(Uh, like this)
Tecca Nina, Tecca Nina
(Wassup?)
Why you so damn psycho?
(Couldn't tell ya baby, I'm makin' rella baby, flippin' hella baby)
(Ask your nearest fortune teller, baby, strange)
I can give myself a C-section
With a rusty jagged weapon
Bungee wit 100 feet of slack
In front of my kids with no discretion
Strange days like Juliet Lewis
And Angela Basset off in a casket
Trippin with the 9
Get your mind blown like a head gasket
Mizzery's in the house for the '99 shot
Futuristic ladies love me a whole whole lot
When demons try to do me Jew
They know they wicked
So I bust 'em if you ain't down with 3DQ
Who be you? Nina Tech, respect, Midwest Side
For life, grab a mic, and hurt you like a La' Bianca murder
The sound lab got my microchip screwed
Ah shit, malfunction back words, this, kcuf, uoy, mub, now I'm cool
Pain givers, slang spitters, hang niggas, insane figures
No shame aim triggas, lame brain splitters, vein slitter, gang critters
Dame hitters, Wayne livers, narcotical strange nigga
He's strange and I like it
He's strange
(All day all night)
Just the way he is
(Uh, like this)
Tecca Nina, Tecca Nina
(Wassup?)
Why you so damn psycho?
(Couldn't tell ya baby, I'm makin' rella baby, flippin' hella baby)
Strange
How everything feels so strange
Since you walked out on me
I should be feeling blue
I should be feeling sad
But strange, so strange
I'm not crying over you
Strange, how this space
Once too small
No room to breathe
Now overpowers me
Now I'm free to choose
I only see the walls closing in on me
So strange, so strange
I'm not missing you
When I was a girl
I dreamed about you
And for a while you made my life a dream
But now it's all over and it all seems so
Strange
How the real stories end
No happy ever after
No beginning again
Strange
So strange
So strange
Strange, How you stopped loving me!
How you stopped needing me!
When you came along, oh how strange!
Strange, How you stopped loving me!
How you stopped needing me!
When you came along, oh how strange!
Strange, You change like night and day
Just stopped and walked away
When you came along, oh how strange!
Well I guess that I was meant to be
A puppet on a string
To think I found you really love me
look what love can bring
Strange, You're still in all my dreams
Oh what a foolish me
I still care for you, oh how strange!
How strange!
Well I guess that I was meant to be
A puppet on a string
To think I found you really love me
look what love can bring
Strange, How you stopped loving me!
How you stopped needing me!
When you came along, oh how strange!
Strange, You change like night and day
Just stopped and walked away
When you came along, oh how strange!
Strange, You're still in all my dreams
Oh what a foolish me
I still care for you, oh how strange!
Well I guess that I was meant to be
A puppet on a string
To think I found you really love me

Strange, You're still in all my dreams
Oh what a foolish me
I was heading down the highway
She's going my way
She climbed in, the next thing I knew
We started laughing and smoking,
We got to talking
Yeah, we'd both been hurt a time or two
I knew she didn't love me
But I didn't think she'd want me, no
Right there she took me
Underneath that sun, we became one
She said
Life's a little strange
We all need a little strange sometimes
I'm a little strange
A lot like you....
(let's ride)
Halfway to boston
She turned down the radio
Asked what I was looking for
Then I looked in her eyes,
For the first time I realized
I really didn't know anymore
Sometimes I think I want true love
Most times I feel like there's no one
But in the meantime hold me tight
Things will be alright
I said...
Life's a little strange
We all need a little strange sometimes
I'm a little strange
A lot like you....
(let's ride)
Solo
I pulled along the highway
The time had come to go our way
She took my hand, looked into my eyes
And said "won't you hold me one more time"
She said....
Life's a little strange
We all need a little strange sometimes
I'm a little strange a lot
A freak of nature
Stuck in reality
I don't fit the picture
I'm not what you want me to be
Sorry
Under the radar
Out of the system
Caught in the spotlight
That's my existence
You want me to change
But all I feel is strange
Strange
In your perfect world
So strange
Strange
I feel so absurd in this life
Don't come closer
In my arms
Forever you'll be strange
Strange
You want to fix me
Push me
Into your fantasy
You try to give me
Sell me
A new personality
You try to lift me
I don't get better
What's making you happy
Is making me sadder
In your golden cage
All I feel is strange
Strange
In your perfect world
So strange
Strange
I feel so absurd in this life
Don't come closer
In my arms
Forever you'll be strange
Strange like me
(Strange)
When you touch me
(Strange)
When you kill me
(Strange)
All I feel is strange
(Strange)
In my dreams
Together we'll be
Strange
Strange
Strange
In your perfect world
Strange
(I am so strange)
Strange
(I am so afraid)
Strange
Strange
In your perfect world
So strange
Strange
I feel so absurd in this life
Don't come closer
You'll die slowly
In my arms
Forever you'll be
Strange
Strange because I believe it is my future
Staring back at me
With eyes so light
I never dreamed it could be
Anything else than what they could see
Oh, they are colors
That collide and scope
My heart belongs into
Magnificent ever-changing patterns do
I'm wide awake at the wheel
It's oh so crazy because I can see
It could be my presence
So pleasantly deprived
I've never seen the explained prophecies
Or anything else it should be
Oh they are troubled
And disguised behind wise eyes and wise crackin smiles
Hypnotized behind a panel
On a thirty hour drive
I'm not at all what I seem
But my intentions are practical inventions
Forgot to mention I'm insane by definition
We're taking pictures on the paper
No escape, the morning after I outride the wave
But all in all, it's unlikely I'll succeed
Said, all in all, it's unlikely
But all in all, it's unlikely we'll succeed
All in all, I said, it's unlikely
But all in all, it's unlikely I'll succeed
I've developed a lovely distaste for your heart on my
sleeve, yeah
(scatting)
We keep it simple
Keep it clean
Keep repeating the words as often as you need
Oh, think, think
Blinks like a turning signal me to
Turn, turn away oh
From anything good, people say
Oh now, I will be selective, calm, cool and collective
And listening to the voice and it's perspective
Hoping that the choices, appropriately respected
Are protecting me, are protecting me
Hey, hey, protecting me, protecting me
And I would like a little sugar in my coffee
I would like a little dream
And I'd prefer another smoke before the morning
Or anything else in between
But all in all, it's unlikely I'll succeed
Said, all in all, it's unlikely
All in all, it's unlikely we'll succeed
All in all, I said, it's unlikely
But all in all, it's unlikely I'll succeed
I've developed a lovely distaste for your wide open
spaces
I sense a delay
Oh, brushing my mind and scrubbing behind all the
places I feel there's decay
Of information
Away, I say run, boy
(scatting)
Oh, oh we keep it
So wicked and it's wild
Your past, your former style
Oh they can make believe in
Knowing why you're leaving
You're just wanting to be on your own
I said, You're wanting to be on your own
Yeah, you wanted to be on your own
Start making sense
Of everything I've seen before, well, um
Somewhere in my life
Been paying the price
But that ain't enough anymore, well
Don't get me wrong now baby
Don't get me wrong baby
Strange, strange, strange
Things that happen to me
I don't know if I'm coming or going, baby, well
Strange, strange, strange
Things you keep on doing
Something's getting outta control
Can't help myself
To everything I'm looking for
No, no, no
Sometimes I can't explain
Why I go insane
It just isn't fun anymore, well
Don't get me wrong now baby
Don't get me wrong baby
Strange, strange, strange
Things that happen to me
I don't know if I'm coming or going, baby, well
Strange, strange, strange
Things you keep on doing
Something's getting outta control
Outta control
Yeah
Shame on you
Don't get me wrong now baby
Don't get me wrong baby
Strange, strange, strange
Things that happen to me
I don't know if I'm coming or going, baby, well
Strange, strange, strange
Things you keep on doing (keep on doing)
Something's getting outta control
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, well
Strange, strange, strange
Things that happen to me
I don't know if I'm coming or going, baby, well
Strange, strange, strange
Things you keep on doing (keep on doing)
Something's getting outta
Something's getting outta
Something's getting outta control
Outta control
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Strange, strange, strange
Things you keep on doing
Strange, strange, strange
Things that happen to me
Strange, strange, strange
Things you keep on doing
Strange, strange, strange
Things that happen to me
To me, to me
Yes I will
Yes I will
Strange how you stopped needing me, how stopped loving me when she came along. Oh, how strange.
Strange you changed like night & day; just up & walked away, when she came along. Oh, how strange.
Well, I guess that I was just a puppet you put on a string. To think I thought you really loved me, but look what thoughts can bring.
Strange you're still in all my dreams. Oh, what a funny thing. Oh, how strange.
Well, I guess that I was just a puppet you held on a string. To think I thought you really love me, but look what thoughts can bring.

this strange
plan is random at best
this strange
how much more can I take?
this strange
change in atmosphere
and in gravity too
and it's severity
this strange
day is almost over
get sick of it
just started to
but not all that strange
and it's strange
but what's so strange
that it's strange
about that?
but why is that strange
that it's strange
yeah it's strange
but oh, well
this strange
plan is random at best
this strange
how much more can I take?
this strange
sound you said I said
I'm not saying it right
you're not listening or
this strange
war of promises
let's call us a truce
and call it the truth
and it's strange
that it's strange
but what's so strange
but not all that strange
about that?
yeah it's strange
but what isn't strange
yeah it's strange
Strange, how you and I don't speak
Strange, how we're so strong and weak,
I don't wanna talk to you,
Sure you feel the same way, too,
And so we've made our minds up
And ev'rything can stay that way.
Strange, how time just slips away,
Strange, it's almost New Year's Day,
And so another year's gone by
And not a word from you or I
And riding down the toll road,
I begin to wish you'd say,
"Look, if your day's gone bad
And you just feel sad and alone tonight,
You know you might try callin',
The walls might fall if you'd phone tonight",
I don't wanna talk to you,
Then again I guess I do,
But I can't let my pride down
And you, of course, must have your way.
Strange--
Strange, how strange best friends can be,
Strange, when best friends disagree,
I suppose we'll meet again,
Somewhere by surprise and then
Maybe risk a hand shake,
Maybe that would be okay,
But if your day's gone bad
And you just feel sad and alone tonight,
You know you might try callin',
The walls might fall if you'd phone tonight,
I don't wanna talk to you,
Then again, well, yes, I do,
But I can't let my pride down
And you, of course, must have your way.
Strange,
Strange,
Strange.
I never thought that I was strange
I always had something to do to think about
They say that some things never change
Well I guess they do
Cos I never thought I was strange
So I maybe off the wall, just a little bit
I may seem to be unfriendly
But that's not it
Strange looks from everybody around
Well I don't care 'cos I'm not fooling around
I don't know what makes me different and I don't care
Maybe it's not my problem, why do they stare?
Sometimes I stop. Think for a while
I don't know what makes me different
And I don't care
Maybe it's not my problem
Why do they stare?
The sun has set
The ground is cold and wet
And I still haven't left
And time she let us rest
For long enough
But we're growing up
Things are different
You used to listen
Isn't it strange
How can we go on like this?
Flies in the dark
Looking for a spark
But something's gotta give
'Cause if it won't change
How can we go on like this?
How can I live?
It's just a dream
It's just a silhouette
That hasn't happened yet
But the earth is moving fast
And if I'm gone before the dawn
Take all that there was
And make it live
Isn't it strange
How can we go on like this?
Flies in the dark
Looking for a spark
But something's gotta give
Cause if it won't change
how can we go on like this
How can I live?
Cause it's just another moment
I could've played the game
I could've done without this
But I didn't.
So why can't I acknowledge
The more things change
The more they stay the same.
Isn't it strange
How can we go on like this?
Flies in the dark
Looking for a spark
But something's gotta give
Cause if I won't change
How can it go on like this
Rap:
It really isnt clear
What the story is my dear
So Ill have to analyze
All those lies and alibis
One look was all it took
Cause I know you like a book
You think youre cleaver
Those endeavors, that youre hiding
Im deciding that were through
Strange
Got a feeling youve been lying to me lately
When we kiss I get a bad vibration
You tried to hide the guilt in your eyes
Leaving clues without a trace
We used to talk and now youre always quiet
I ask you why, you say that youre just tired
You get a call and youre ready to walk out the door
And I think its kinda strange
Bridge
My suspicions are killing me
But I dont wanna point the finger at you
You say I shouldnt place the blame
But it seems youre playing games
How much longer must I tolerate this madness
Chorus
Strange
So low I cant get under it
So high I cant get over it
So wide I cant get around it
And its looking mighty strange
Yesterday I saw you across town
Buying roses, thats something you never do
When you got home, hello is all I got from you
Dont cha think thats kinda strange
I been feelin kinda funny since the last time
Cause you left in such a hurry, tryin to buy time
If youre doing what Im thinking that youre going
Then I think you need to change
Bridge
Chorus
Rap:
I cant say when
But it seems it all began
When I felt an icy tingle down my spine
You say its in my mind
So I must resolve to find
Little pieces of the puzzle that fit
You think youre so slick
But Im up on all your tricks
And I think youre soon to be
A small part of history
I know its hard to see
So how you are cheating me
You cant hide
I cant stop it
Cant get by it
Baby watch the fire
It's making for the bed
And I don't wanna see you laying in the flames
Being burned and bruised on something they said
Well what's the matter
All her dreams are shattered and torn
And do you wanna make the poor girl lose it all
They say she's Strange, Strange, Strange, Strange, Strange
Yeah, she's Strange, Strange, Strange, Strange, she's Strange
Thanks to you she's gone
Never said goodbye
And don't be sorry she'll be better off alone
With her burns and her bruises in another sky
Well what's the matter
All her dreams are shattered and torn
And do you wanna make the poor girl lose it all
You've won now
She's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
Yeah she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
They say she's Strange, Strange, Strange, Strange, Strange
Yeah she's Strange, Strange, Strange, Strange, she's Strange
All the way from across the sea
From the man to you, from the man to me
Four white sticks with good intentions
Feed the flame for my protection
I want to know what you want
To find what I don't
But now it's yesterday
Falling down a broken spiral
Heed the flame for no tomorrow
Back up on your feet again
Hold my hand, I'll be your friend
Cause the leaves are falling, falling down
I wake up in my room, with a desire to dream
of unfamiliar places and faces, never what
they seem
I get up to do the zombie dance, in my sleep
a nocturnal chance
I feel the rise of the beast in my head
My mind is bleeding me eyes turnin' red
Confusing faces of the people around
inducing graces never hearing a sound
Chorus:
Back to the wall with a crazy head
My mama's callin' for me
My head goes bang, bang, bang,
I realize that i need to be
Strange, deranged
Nightmare master, black dog bastard
Strange, so strange
Come into my world and be insane
Now the voodoo queens are comin' after me
They caught me playin' with their dolls
Pins and needles prickin' my flesh
Now i'm somewhere in pain nailed to the wall
The wind of change has now blown me away
I hear the growl of a pack of wild dogs
I smell the rush of adrenalin blow
I remember the cold cold feelin' of my
I move my hands and fingers around
like i'm about to cast a spell
You ask the questions that make you wonder
of the story i tell
Unfamiliar places and faces, never what they seem
I feel strange
half-asleep
at the wheel
don't you know it feels good
to know you're next to me
We are so
strange, in complete
control of what we choose
or choose not to be.
WE are so far gone
We are holding strong
faces like pictures on a wall
I've never seen before
still they seem strangely familiar
you count the raindrops as they fall
strange how the sun shines through it
we are so far gone
we are not broken
we are holding strong
we are so
strange
does it make you feel
your order is your anarchy
your violence your peace
your gospel is your blasphemy
your famine is your feast
destruction is your architect
your woman and your priest
I fear your falling sanctuary's
soon to be your beast
I believe in something strange
the prophecies are closing in
upon us one by one
the angels of the seven churches
maiden of the sun
silent lay the gentle lamb
the prayer and the gun
I believe the gates above
are closed to everyone
I believe in something strange
Prophets and angels fall from the altar
weak is the grip of the hand of the brave
pray for the bleeding that lie in the shatters
pray for the dying that lie in their graves
submission through guilt and fear
is not what I had in mind
and my blood has run far too thin
among the hands of you all
and I'm afraid I have nothing
left for you
a symphony of tragedy
awakes a watchful eye
a serenade of agony
pours down from the sky
the dancers of catastrophe
go quickly spinning by
I begin to understand
the simple reason why
I believe in something strange
There's something strange going on tonight
There's something going on that's not quite right
Joey's nervous and the lights are bright
There's something going on that's not quite right
There's something going down that wasn't here before
Keep your eyes glued to the floor
No one's gonna save your life
Something strange going on tonight
There's something going on that wasn't here before
Keep your eyes glued to the floor
No one's gonna save your life
Something strange going on tonight
There's something strange going on tonight
There's something going on that's not quite right
Joey's nervous and the lights are bright
I'd rather be strange, I'd rather be ugly, I'd rather be
not quite right, then part of the lovely.
I'd rather be plain, pushed aside and lonely, than to be
carried by all the fakes an phonies.
Cause Hollywood is burning down, Hollywood is burning
down like Babylon. Like Babylon
Strange woman is strange cho caan believe dis
How come you tell me that you love me then you run away

Strange how you've stopped loving me
how you've stopped needing me,
since she came along, oh, how strange
Strange, you changed like night and day
Just up and walked away
when she came along, oh, how strange
Well, I guess that I was just your puppet
you held on a string
to think I thought you really loved me
but look what thoughts can bring
Strange, you're still in all my dreams
oh, what a funny thing
I hear a voice in my mind
There is a gate concealed
My emotions are so blind,
Nothing revealed
Tumultuous thoughts on the face
A dementia in deep
My emotions are so blind,
It's an infected creep
Strange layers of our pride, forever lost
Vividness of the tale, disguised
Our beliefs are the hopes weird host
Unimportance will be realized
Consciousness begins to fade
Yet the state of mind debased
The decisions are made,
Madness is faced
Grabbed by the inner demon
Disrooted of mankind's grace
The societies crippled son,
It's an infected creep
Strange layers of our pride, forever lost
Vividness of the tale, disguised
Our beliefs are the hopes weird host
Ss..ss..uh..uh..smoke that
Uh..ss..ss..hit it
Ss..look bitch..bitch hit it uh
[Hook]
How many niggas wanna ride tonight, die tonight, survive tonight
How many niggas wanna ride tonight, die tonight, survive tonight
How many niggas wanna ride tonight, die tonight, survive tonight
How many niggas wanna ride tonight, die tonight, survive tonight
[Mr. Mike]
With Mr. Gun-Clapper blast, who got murder for that killer slash
Thug rapper, as these niggas begin to come after
Me in the middle of the night
Is it Mr. Mike or did I change my name to Victor
In the middle of the fight
Quiet, shh, on the set, light up ya blunts and cigarettes
The richer G's get, the bitcher these niggas
My picture gets painted like Leonardo de Vinci, fully of envy
Texas was the spot niggas got shot and fucked ya memories
Send me the flyest MC that's tryin' to see
And Suave come pound, they got hung, broke down to the highest degree
Well I be, the bitch wanna fuck Mike for free
Either slide me a G or get the fuck up out my ride see
My oozy weighs a ton, when you niggas see me run
Got game to fuck a nun, blame my gun
I leave you shakin' son of a bitch, I'm rich
I'm quick to hit chu' up (Nigga)
It's them strange motherfuckers that don't give a fuck
[Hook]
[Crime Boss]
I was born and brought up where these streets be the key
Erasin' suspicious and heartless niggas on the streets
Some live in poverty, even though a nigga be slangin' dope
And dodgin' the Feds cause them bastards want me broke
Back flashes of prison, for ninety days I'm doin' bad
No money for books so every day I'm livin' mad
Born to be tough through all these miseries and pain
Standin' strong through these struggles of this deadly game
Visions of body bags and my homies closed caskets
Illusions of prison and pistols pressures that I blastin'
I'm out to live with no time to play
I got the tendencies to kill in relentless ways
Straight up, cause life is a trick bitch, if you weep and reek
You stuck outta luck, seekin' for relief
Too much destruction, they claim we gotta make a change
So much trouble between each other cause ya ghetto life is strange
[Hook]
[Tela]
Philosophically, psychologically ya fixin' to be fucked
We goin' on this ride and ya bitch I'm gon' seduct
Nigga what, do I give a...
Ask the mound killer
Faces I remember they say dump him in the river
New Year's Eve 1999 nigga
Virtual reality, galaxy gettin' slicker
Me and Crime Boss and a nigga named Mister
Mike to a flight, had some glitz to deliver
Headed back to the Suave castle
I had to wrestle with this transvestite who had a dick like a lasso
In this castle was a midget with banana clippin'
Bootleg sniffin' or Mr. Mike'll fuckin' wicked
Ways infared waves hit his fuckin' chest
Blew his ass to bits, particles of green shit
It really goes to show ya that shit ain't changed
In year 2000 life still be strange
Well I headed to Atlanta for the weekend
Just to step out of my boring little life
I was going to my best friend's brothers' wedding
Thought I'd eat and drink for free for just one night
I was sittin' in the pew behind the Grandmas
When the bridesmaids all came walkin' down the aisle
She was the second from the last I still remember
Because I knew I'd seen forever in her smile
Oh, life all comes down to a couple of moments
When just like that everything can change
You open up your eyes and in an instant
Nothing will ever be the same
Ain't life strange
Ain't it strange
We had a wedding of our own that next December
Somehow I made that little bridesmaid my bride
I guess no one really ever sees the future
Oh but you can just imagine my surprise
When nine months later we were down at the County General
We were watching little Liza join the world
Well I'm not sure but I think I might have kissed the doctor
When he said congratulations Daddy it's a girl
Oh, life all comes down to a couple of moments
When just like that everything can change
You open up your eyes and in an instant
Nothing will ever be the same
Ain't life strange
Ain't it strange
I said life all comes down to a couple of moments
When just like that everything can change
You open up your eyes and in an instant
Nothing will ever be the same
Ain't life strange
Ain't it strange
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Why's everybody actin' funny?
Why's everybody look so strange?
Why's everybody look so nasty?
What do I want with all these things?
I went alone down to the drugstore
I went in back and took a Coke
I stood in line and ate my Twinkies
I stood in line, I had to wait
Why's everybody actin' funny?
Why's everybody look so strange?
Why's everybody look so pretty?
What do I want with all these things?
I went alone down to the drugstore
I went in back and took a Coke
I stood in line and ate my Twinkies
Chorus
You say it isn't your style to just ride the flow
But if you'd like a little something and you've tried alone
Here's a first class ticket
I know you're into strange
Remember when we were so lost inside each other
But we were not alone
There were also many others
I'm one who likes to believe that people never change
Thinks back to the monument there in France
Or the club in Italy where you did your dirty dancing
I like to think that people never change
Feeling like you made me feel
Do it like you do babe
Playin' dangerous games
Well they tell me not to do it
But the feeling is right
Chorus
You say it isn't your style to just ride the flow
But if you'd like a little something and you've tried alone
Here's a first class ticket
I know you're into strange
I think I still have the photograph
The scars and the other half
Of somebody's place we busted up
Now here's to hopin that you'll never change
And everything that you said to me
At times I was a little bit scared you see
So I wonder why it turns me on
Do it like you do it
Baby just don't ever change
Feeling like you made me feel
Do it like you do babe
Playin' dangerous games
Well they tell me not to do it
But the feeling is right
Chorus
You say it isn't your style to just ride the flow
But if you'd like a little something and you've tried alone
Here's a first class ticket
I know you're into strange
Bridge
And I know if we stop today
We will forever be wishing for one more day of strange
Chorus
You say it isn't your style to just ride the flow
But if you'd like a little something and you've tried alone
Here's a first class ticket
Can't wait to see you
Next time I see you
Last time I'd care to speak
She robbed in the day light
Cuz it just don't feel right
This time again
Back then
How'd this begin again?
How'd this begin
I don't mind sorrow
Leavin' again
But I don't feel ready again
Called me and told me
Just what to do
I might give in, I might get right
Someone to hold me
I know ain't lonely
Sleep right as I done for years
Way cross the water
I know my place is
This time again back then
This time I might give in
Why am I waiting? How can I live it
So leave

Ain€™t life strange, baby
And I go downstairs the candle throws a shadow over me
And when I get downstairs I pass the place she always used to be
And it's strange how no one else can see
Strange, no one else but me
And when I kiss her mouth I raise the lid and lower it again
And when I kiss her mouth I never cry, I'm just like other men
ABut it's strange how no one else can see
Strange, no one else but me
And so she lies there in the freezer looking elegant and tall
Oh, she could lie there for a century and never change at all
And it's strange, how no one else can see
Strange, no one else but me
My heart is pounding, my stomach's inside out
I'm feeling kinda shaky, my mind is full of doubt.
All I ever think about is fearing fear itself,
Wish I could unscrew my head and put it on the shelf.
Chorus:
you know I'm feeling kinda... strange.
you know I'm feeling kinda... strange.
Everything is twisted, everything is oh so tight.
Don't know what I'm looking at, the lights are all too bright.
My brain's about to crumble, spill out on the floor.
Sweep 'em up, throw 'em away, I don't want 'em any more.
Chorus
Clouds race across the sky, day turns into night.
Still there are the questions, no answers in sight.
Everything is twisted, everything is oh so tight.
Staring out the window, everything is just too bright.
Brain's about to crumble, spill out on the floor.
Wish I could unscrew my head and kick it out the door.
Momma's in the kitchen
Sister's on the phone
Daddy's watching TV
I was upstairs all alone
Pickin' on my guitar
Just twicking all my twang
Up all night, sleep all day
and people say I'm strange
My girlfriend works at Walmart
She'll check your merchandice
If you give her any lip son,
She'll cut you down to size
Got a crusafix and a crystal hanging on a silver chain
A fish hook belly button ring and a tattoo that says
Strange, Strange, Just a little strange
A little wild and dangerous and slightly derranged
Strange, strange, don't you ever change
'Cause everybody out there is just a little strange
She's got skirts out on the fender
Headlights to the wind
Crush velvet on the seats, makes a boy wanna slide right on in
Two tone drop top Cadillac
Cherry red and pink champagne, Chrome around the tail lights
and the license plate says, guess what?
Strange, Strange, Just a little strange
A little wild and dangerous and slightly derranged
Strange, strange, don't you ever change
'Cause everybody out there is just a little
everybody is just a little
Strange, Strange, Just a little strange
A little wild and dangerous and slightly derranged
Strange, strange, don't you ever change
'Cause everybody out there gets a little
Strange, Strange, Just a little strange
A little wild and dangerous and slightly derranged
Strange, strange, don't you ever change
'Cause everybody out there is just a little
stra-a-a-a-a
Strange
Strange
Strange
everybody looking, everybody looking,
everybody looking, everybody looking,
everybody looking, everybody looking,
everybody looking, everybody looking,
Last chance to save yourself from my corroded selfish notions,
I guess I'm not who you thought.
I guess I'm not what you thought.
I guess I'm not who you think I am.
You just think I'm wasted ooh,
I'm always wasted ooh,
Well you'll just have to get over it
Last chance to pick myself up off the ground it holds me here and,
I guess I'm not who you thought.
I guess I'm not what you thought.
I guess I'm not who you think I am.
You just think I'm wasted ooh,
I'm always wasted ooh,
Well you'll just have to get over it
I guess I'm not who you thought.
I guess I'm not what you thought.
I guess I'm not who you think I am.
I can't remember the last time,
That I wasn't drowning in all of this.
I do believe it's the last time,
I know that we must come to an end.
You just think I'm wasted ooh,
I'm always wasted ooh,
Well you'll just have to get over it
I guess I'm not who you thought.
I guess I'm not what you thought.
Hey!
It doesn't really matter where you go
It makes no difference, baby, who you know
This thing has gotten way out of control
Hey!
It doesn't really matter who you are
You might as well be a super star
'cause everything has gone way too far, oh-oh-oh
It's the strangest thing
It's getting stranger and then
It's getting harder to win
It's getting digital then
It's starts happening all over again
Hey!
It makes no difference, baby, what you say
It's getting weirder every day by day
I think that something's really gone astray
Hey!
It really doesn't matter what you try
It's getting even harder to deny
'cause reality has just said good-bye
It's the strangest thing
It's getting stranger and then
It's getting harder to win
It's getting digital then
It's starts happening all over again
It's getting stranger and then
It's getting harder to win
It's getting digital then
It's starts happening all over again
It's the strangest thing
One breath too late
and you're gone for good
twelve floors down, to the street
funny how far it seems
but what could I do
and what would I change
when everything's strange
why should I learn to fly
when I can just hide away
isn't it strange
under my skin
scars turn to stone
the freeway fades red to grey
I guess you found another way home
but what could I do
and what would I change
now everything's strange
why should I learn to fly
when I can just drive away
isn't it strange
standing on this ledge up here with a
a choir of angels in my ear singing, welcome to my mind
if I fall, if I break, will you hear the sound I make
I don't need what we left behind
but what could I do
and what would I change
when everything's strange
why should I learn to die
when I could just fly away
Don't you dig this life
They call the meek
You whose feet are on the ground
And if you get too high
What goes around comes around
And brings you down
Cause people gonna see you
How they wanna see you
People gonna rate you
People gonna hate you
People gonna shove you
People gonna love you
People gonna do whatever
Makes them feel they own you better
Cause everyone knows we're strange
(Ahh)
So why do you feel ashamed
(Ohh) Baby
Everyone knows we're different
(Ahh)
So why do you feel ashamed
We love you all the same
That's why
Cause if you feel it
And if you mean it
Don't apologize
And you'll be just fine
Cause all they ever need is what you'll give them
Is what you're given
They only put you down if you give them permission
skeleton boy by the side of the road.
he warned me, he told me;
he said, 'there's this woman, she's a hurricane,
she will heal your heart up, she is hurrying.'
he said, 'don't look for holidays.
don't look, just run away.
go suffocate, and choke your own cry.
go where the water,
where the water, seeps from the pink sky.
but behead this woman, she's a hurricane,
she will heal your heart up, and she is hurrying.
remember your reflection in a pool, in a puddle -'
and the leaves sped top-speed towards me,
and my image was muddled.
'i'm a lightheaded wonder,' she said,
'don't you see my mind slow down
i'm a lightheaded wonder
don't you see my mind slow down
slow down
i've compassion for strangers,
an affinity for danger -
won't you be my sacrifice
i'm a lightheaded wonder
don't you see my mind slow down for you
for you'
no -
you're a headless woman, you're a hurricane.
you will heal my heart up
no, i will heal my own heart up, because you are hurting.
cause i'm a sunburn slap upon your arm,
i'll twist you til you break,
and you're a hurricane.
By the way
Every little thing about her face
Fills him up
The image so pleasing it could never be erased
Here to stay
Embedded in his mind
He wishes they could be together all the time
By the way
She says things, the tone, just to hear her voice
He can't explain
The sound so exciting to him a perfect choice
Here to stay
Embedded in his mind
He wishes they could be together all the time
A crazy independent Spanish speaking
Arty flirty red wine drinking
Sexy tomboy with a natural way of
Thinking carefree
And innocent she's slightly sneaky
Confidently proud from another country
Has her way, lives for today
By the way she's far away
By the way
Holding her, hugging her can feel so warm
Just think about it
Two bodies embracing, creating love in this form
Here to stay
Embedded in his mind
He wishes they could be together all the time
A crazy independent Spanish speaking
Arty flirty red wine drinking
Sexy tomboy with a natural way of
Thinking crazy
Then she kissed him and she went away
Far across to San Francisco Bay
You'd think that she would think again
And only want to be with him
Regardless of the things that pull her far away
She's far away
A crazy independent Spanish speaking
Arty flirty red wine drinking
Sexy tomboy with a natural way of
Thinking crazy
By the way she's far away
And by the way she's far away
A crazy independent Spanish speaking
Arty flirty red wine drinking
By the way she's far away
Oooh - far away - oh
A crazy independent Spanish speaking
Arty flirty red wine drinking
By the way she's far away
If you see me in a diner
Drawing on a napkin
Never try to look over my shoulder
Or you'll panic
If you think I'm strange
You're strange as well
And if you think I'm strange
You're strange as well
If you don't hit them over the head
Then anything can happen
One thing that I've learned
Before you give a gift you wrap it
If you think I'm strange
You're strange as well
And if you think I'm strange
You're strange as well
Now I can be myself
Because you're as strange as well
Don't blame it on yourself
I was strange before I met you
If you think I'm strange
You're strange as well
And if you think I'm strange
A simple life is what you need
But you just see things different
Youæ?®e turning whispers into screams
Itæ?¯ crazier å? veryday
And things have never been the same
Since that awkward moment
I ask you why you have to take
The muddy road å? veryday
I can see it clearly now
Love is never easy
(chorus)
Where is this light you hope Iæ?£l find
Weæ?®e hopelessly locked up inside
Thereæ?¯ no way out no way to win
You say Iæ?¦ indifferentå?¢ just think youæ?®e
Strange
You line youæ?®e dreams up the a shelf
You just sit and watch them
You wish I was somebody else
Off your feetå?»wept away
But change is never welcome here
And it makes me wonder
How circumstances turn to fear
Another placeå? nother day
Can you see it clearly now
Weæ?®e running out of reasons
(chorus)
Where was I when all this changed
Too bad thereæ?¯ nothing left to say
You think Iæ?¦ indifferent
I just think youæ?®e strange
(Double chorus)
You tell me Iæ?¦ indifferent

But if you'd like a little something and you've tried alone
Here's a first class ticket
I know you're into strange
I think I still have the photograph
The scars and the other half
Of somebody's place we busted up
Now here's to hopin that you'll never change
And everything that you said to me
At times I was a little bit scared you see
So I wonder why it turns me on
Do it like you do it
Baby just don't ever change
Feeling like you made me feel
Do it like you do babe
Playin' dangerous games
Well they tell me not to do it
But the feeling is right
Chorus
You say it isn't your style to just ride the flow
But if you'd like a little something and you've tried alone
Here's a first class ticket
I know you're into strange
Bridge
And I know if we stop today
We will forever be wishing for one more day of strange
Chorus
You say it isn't your style to just ride the flow
But if you'd like a little something and you've tried alone
Here's a first class ticket
(Milan Hlavsa/Jan Koubek)
Strange is the evening bell
Strange is the warning
Strange is the crying out
Strange is the visit
Strange is the meeting
Strange is the welcome
Strange are the friends
Strange am I myself
Srange is this banquet
Strange is this silence
Strange is this coincidence
Strange is this undulation
Strange is this longing
Strange is this drowsiness
Strnge are these curses
Why does it have to be me?
broken bottles and broken bones
the city's a broken home
we'll trash the roof tonight
gatecrash the satellites
strange and young and beautiful
six, six and seventeen
sequins ans vaseline
sweat, flesh and fevered eyes
all set to scanalize
kill god for conversation
cheap talk is masturbation
we'll dream the dreams tonight
we'll fuck for paradise
strange and young and beautiful yeah
We stood all alone
Waiting for this day to come
And I held you close
But I couldn't feel your pain
I didn't know
This would be the last time
This would be the last kiss
This was our goodbye
If you were letting go
I should've been the one you told
I never heard you say goodbye
And I'm sorry isn't good enough
Because lately I've been giving up
And I'm sorry isn't good enough
And your last goodbye
Made me realize
I'll be alright
How could you laugh?
How could you lie to me?
You held me close
But I couldn't feel your pain
I should've known
This couldn't last forever
The last thing I remember
Was standing all alone
If you were letting go
I should've been the one you told
I never heard you say goodbye
And I'm sorry isn't good enough
Because lately I've been giving up
And I'm sorry isn't good enough
And your last goodbye
Made me realize I'll be alright
And so suddenly
I've stopped falling down
I believe in me one more time
And I'm sorry
And I'm sorry isn't good enough
Sorry
I'm sorry
And I'm sorry isn't good enough
I'm sorry isn't good enough
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
(Poole/Martin/Poole)
Baby, watch the fire, it's making for the bed
And I don't wanna see you laying in the flames
Being burned and bruised on something they said
Well what's the matter
Are your dreams all shattered and torn?
And do you wanna make a poor girl lose it all?
They say she's strange
Strange, strange, strange, strange
Yeah, she's strange
Strange, strange, strange, strange
Thanks to you she's gone, never said goodbye
And don't be sorry, she'll be better off alone
With the burns and the bruises in another sky
Well what's the matter
Are your dreams all shattered and torn?
And do you wanna make a poor girl lose it all?
You've won now, she's gone
Gone, gone, gone, gone
Yeah, she's gone
Gone, gone, gone, gone
Yeah, she's strange
Strange, strange, strange, strange
Yeah, she's strange
I am trying to drown out all of this noise
Such a loud noise
These walls are so thin
I can hear breathing from the other side
Isn't it strange how everything comes together
Isn't it strange how we can last
I am trying to let go of my past
Such a heavy past
Looking for something to make any sense
Can't it make
Isn't it strange how everything comes together
Isn't it strange how we can last
I am waiting for my big break but waiting's nothing but a mistake
I am letting go of the past
Won't let anything hold me back
'Cause if you want this like I want this
Can you hear this like I hear it
Can you see this like I see it
Can you feel this like I feel it
Isn't it strange how everything comes together
Isn't it strange how we can last forever
Forever
Forever
Last forever
Forever
Forever
I don't know quite what I've forgotten, thought I left it all behind
But there's something quite peculiar in the middle of my mind
I don't how you got away from me, I shouldn't really care
But I think that this is just a bit unfair
I feel a little strange now
I feel a bit insane
I'm feeling somewhat anxious
Twisted and deranged
Everything is strange
Going crazy is all the rage
I feel a little strange now
I feel a bit insane
Well, I'm walking down the alley on a broken pair of legs
I know you love to need me, but I'd hate to see you beg
I'm looking in the lines and all the spaces in between
(S.DAY)
I can't see what going wrong.
I have all the pieces to the puzzle,
But i can't seem to fit them all together.
I can't see what's going down.
I have the air, but not the lungs,
To hold my breath, to step inside,
To see what's going wrong.
How did i, how did I, end up such a mess?
And the times that we spent together,
Makes me feel so stange.
I can't find no sympathy.
I've held my breath for such a time,
I'm turning blue, but i can't see,
Still what's going wrong.
I don't know why i fall down.
I stand up straight, I close my eyes,
As i walk towards and up the walls,
To the ceiling and the sky.
How did i, how did i, end up such a mess?
And the times that we spent together,
Makes me feel so stange.
I can't see what going wrong.
I have all the pieces to the puzzle,
But i can't seem to fit them all together.
I can't find no piece of mind.
I've looked in all the darkest places,
But all i seem to see, is see,
There is never two alike.
How did i, how did i, end up such a mess?
And the times that we spent together,
Makes me feel so stange.
When everyone was doing drugs,
we were just doing love
A stranger said you're strange like me
Ana, our dreams are coming true
Don't tell me that a day will come
when we dress like everyone
cuz I can tell you're strange like me
Don't say the hour's growing late
Don't say we should be going straight
cuz I can tell you're strange like me
And dreams can still come true,
Start making sense
Of everthing I've seen before
Somewhere in my life
Been paying the price
But that ain't enough anymore
Don't get me wrong now baby
Don't get me wrong baby
Strange, strange, strange
Things that happen to me
I don't know if I'm coming or going
Strange, strange, strange
Things you keep on doing
Something getting out of control
Can't help myself
To everything I'm looking for
Sometimes I can't explain
Why I go insane
It just isn't fun anymore
Don't get me wrong now baby
Don't get me wrong baby
Strange, strange, strange
Things that happen to me
I don't know if I'm coming or going
Strange, strange, strange
Things you keep on doing
Something getting out of control
Out of control
Don't get me wrong now baby
Don't get me wrong baby
Strange, strange, strange
Things that happen to me
I don't know if I'm coming or going
Strange, strange, strange
Things you keep on doing
Something getting out of control
Strange, strange, strange
Things that happen to me
I don't know if I'm coming or going
Strange, strange, strange
Things you keep on doing
Something getting out of
Something getting out of
Something getting out of control
Out of control
Strange, strange, strange
Things you keep on doing
Strange, strange, strange
Things that happen to me
Strange, strange, strange
Things you keep on doing
Strange, strange, strange
I knew I'd never find
I knew I'd never so I walked away
I knew I'd never find
In school they never taught that way
It's true in troubled times
They'll do whatever
And they've got to pay
The thought of troubled minds
The thought is comin' off the way
The light at the end to pray for
It's always above they say
It's all down to us to find the way
I see in the night and
It's all come to light
That the lost is saved
We've run out of suicides
The strong now they will survive the day
The light at the end to pray for
It's always above they say
It's all down to us to find the way
I'll find the way
Don't you dig this life
They call the meek
You whose feet are on the ground
And if you get too high
What goes around comes around
And brings you down
Cause people gonna see you
How they wanna see you
People gonna rate you
People gonna hate you
People gonna shove you
People gonna love you
People gonna do whatever
Makes them feel they own you better
Cause everyone knows we're strange
(Ahh)
So why do you feel ashamed
(Ohh) Baby
Everyone knows we're different
(Ahh)
So why do you feel ashamed
We love you all the same
That's why
Cause if you feel it
And if you mean it
Don't apologize
And you'll be just fine
Cause all they ever need is what you'll give them
Is what you're given
They only put you down if you give them permission
How they wanna see you
People gonna rate you
People gonna hate you
People gonna shove you
People gonna love you
People gonna do whatever
Makes them feel they own you better
Cause everyone knows we're strange
(Ahh)
So why do you feel ashamed
(Ohh) Baby
Everyone knows we're different
(Ahh)
So why do you feel ashamed
(Ohh)
We love you all the same, yeah
We love you all the same, yeah
We love you all the same,
So don't you ever change
You're undernourished
And unencouraged
And underrated
And unappreciated.
The world is turning in a different direction to us
But just look how far you've come
Considering all of the pushing and spitting and stuff.
Yeah everyone knows we're strange? (Ahh)
So why do you feel ashamed? (Ohh)
Baby, everyone knows we're different (Ahh)
So why do you feel ashamed? (Ohh)
We love you all the same
Yes, we love you
Yes, we love you
All the same
All the same
Yes, we love you
Yes, we love you
All the same
you say I'm beautiful
but the sun sets on the day we've lost that great light
one day we'll plan a heist
take a trip and bottle the sun
then you can reveal yourself to everyone
stranger at a party stranger at a party, sun and neon, friend of a friend
strange the way these things work out in the end
strange the way I see these things that nobody else ever sees
strange the way your light (...) goes to me
strange the way I see these things that nobody else ever sees
strange the way your light (...) goes to me
you dream these gorgeous dreams
but you say when you're awake we're lost forever
you see some cold in me when we're out making a scene
costume contest beauty machine
stranger at a party stranger at a party, sun and neon, friend of a friend
strange the way these things work out in the end
strange the way I see these things that nobody else ever sees
strange the way your light (...) goes to me
strange the way I see these things that nobody else ever sees
strange the way your light (...) goes to me
strange the way I see these things that nobody else ever sees
strange the way your light (...) goes to me
Strange!

(Myntric)
Think quick as I split
a-toms and bust critical mass through some plastic
Get hot like saliva but spit like boric acid
Ditty done run get amped off the wonderman surprise
Mercury rise, I rock off my greedy little eyes
Sun, moon, pronouncing the energy is solar
With tongue numba one I have fun, rockin fuller
Let me wash the aloe vera from my strands just stop blocking
The scientific method of the locking, check it
as I, shoot the ray beam from the moon
Then rebound off the lunar, get amped off the beats
and mic get tuned, check the rhythm
into another dimension for direction
Arrange when I dissect, rearrange when I'm dissecting
the flavor, how many does it take to get to the core
Of a Boo-gie-mon-ster, when he rip it or he's raw
So, whatcha got, jigga nigga Jugganaut
I'm strange when I rhyme
(Vex)
Well I'm beyond critical mass, feel the lyrical blast
Vex the vortex, man of the past
Livin in the present, and walkin in the future
H2O's, the flow as I dilute ya
Twenty-one years now I stand as a man
Drinking from the ocean crushing mountains in my hand
The natural one, eighty-four seasons I have come
Wisdom goes to those that see the sun
God, iniquity's thicker
Any black man who draws the blood of another he's a quitter
Avoid, so go and get a stricken babysitter
A million dreadlocks throws devil in the picture
purgatory, just to seckle all that petty talkin deranged
Boogiemonsters come in strange
Strange!
("And I like it...")
Ha-haha, these kids are nice
*repeat 5X, 4X - line three*
(Yodared)
Mondo McCann, microphone man
Yodaredsee Milo, dig when his mind expand
Vex to the rhyme is never social man
Myntric funk tanker slang a banger fifty grand
With the Riders of the Storm can yes we can can
Pack a black attack to evacuate the land
*together* The empire's falling check the New World Order
for the slaughter, run for shelter, underwater
See seventy percent of the world's underwater
Seventy percent of your body's underwater
Seventy percent of what we live is out of range
We rearrange disorder, but niggaz say we strange...
(Mondo)
A million and one things in our vocabulary are considered strange
Some are legendary, some deranged
But we be not the suck shits cause we explore untouched
Consider hip-hop a big virgin and we -- AHH
Remember your first days of course the sex it felt strange
You blindly explored each other's emotional plane, but hey
The Boogiemonsters consist of four
Experimentin from now til forever and we score
with the Jugganauts the giants, all the way to humans
Forever buildin hip-hop and if not nigga we're fumin cause we're
Strange!
("And I like it...")
Ha-haha, these kids are nice
