Sparks - Strange Animal lyrics

[Sparks - Strange Animal lyrics]

When the strange animal
With the strange set of plans
Came to town last July
There was blood on his hands
And it now comes to light
He had been in a fight
With some government men
Who were high as a kite

What a strange animal we a-a-a-are

There are songs that are sealed
That will not let you in
But he came upon a song that was open to him
To get out of the rain
It was cold, it was strong
Well the strange animal
Walked right into the song

What a strange animal we a-a-a-are
What a strange


What a strange animal we a-a-a-are

"I had nowhere to go so I entered your song
So I entered your song
Hope you don't think me wrong
Well it's warm and it's dry
It's a nasty old night
It's a nasty old night
And I must look a sight"

There's something 'bout him
That is frightening
And right on cue, a bolt of lightning

"I'll just sit over here
Till the chorus appears
Would you think it a sin
If I start chiming in?"

What a strange animal we a-a-a-are we are
What a strange animal we are

"If I may be quite frank
And I'm not pulling rank
And I know I'm a guest
And I know you know best
But this song lacks a heart
Comes off overly smart an emotional core
Ain't that what songs are for?"

There's something 'bout him I'm not liking
Somebody tell him to get hiking

"But, you need to be clear
And a bit more sincere
Wake me up, will you friend
When the verse finally ends?"

What a strange animal we a-a-a-are we are

But the ones in the song
Who had been there so long
Grew impatient and seethed
And they asked him to leave
But he said "Not so fast! Unaware of my past
You allowed me inside
You can't push me aside
When the song lets me in
I can see where it's been -
If it's broken some hearts
If it's been in the charts
But this song shows no signs
Of a grander design entertainment or art
One should know from the start"

"You're in need of a fix or a total remix
So I must kill you all
Start again, have a ball
I'm a strange animal
And I find you quite dull
Here's that chorus again that can stay
Here's the end"

What a strange animal we a-a-a-are
