Deep Purple - Strangeways lyrics

Your rating:

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
