Judy Garland - Purple People Eater songtekst
Je score:
(slowly, almost spoken) In these days of flying saucers and Sputniks You expect almost anything to happen The Thing, The Fly, The Mole People, The Gamma People The Indestructible Fossil Man, The Amazing Colossal Man The Body Snatchers, The High Incredible Brain Scratchers I was a teenage werewolf, I was a 50 foot woman! And other unidentifiable flying objects I dismissed them all as being science fiction They belonged on a library shelf But here I am facing contradiction 'cause it happened to me myself The sky turned red, and then it turned green I couldn't catch my breath And then there was a roar of thunder That scared me half to death Then I saw it, yeah, I saw it, yes (sung fast, upbeat) I saw a thing a-coming out of the sky It had one long horn and one big eye I commenced shaking and I said, "ooo-ee!" "It looks like a purple people eater to me!" We had one live, one horned flying purple people eater One eyed, one horned flying purple people eater One eyed, one horned flying purple people eater Sure looks strange to me! I said, "Mister Purple People Eater, don't eat me!" He looked at me, and then he said "I wouldn't eat you 'cause you is red" One eyed flying purple people eater One horned flying purple people eater One eyed, one horned flying purple people eater Sure looks strange to me! I said, "Mister Purple People Eater, what's your line?" He said, "eating purple people, and it sure is fine" "But that's not the reason that I came to land" "I wanna get a job in a rock 'n' roll band" Well whisper so, rock 'n' roll, flying purple people eater Pigeon toed, undergrowed, flying purple people eater He wears short shorts, flying purple people eater Sure looks strange to me! Well, he went on his way, and then whadda'ya know? I saw him last night on the Sullivan show Blowing it out, really knocking 'em dead Blowing purple music through the horn in his head Well bless my soul! Rock 'n' roll! Flying purple people eater! Pigeon toed, undergrowed, flying purple people eater So all you blue people, all you red people, better watch what you do Or else the purple people eaters might eat you
