There's a stranger in our town 
he's got a burning eye 
he wants to get off on you... 

The last time that he was here 
he had a roving eye 
he smiled as he got off on you... 

Don't face me with that sad face 
because, you lost that glorious grace 
you will always be coming back to this place, 

There's a stranger, in our town 
There's a stranger, pullin' you around 
There's a stranger, in our town 
There's a stranger, 
and he's gonna break your heart 
and then get off on you... 

There's a stranger in our town 
pulls out a punk's spinal cord 
piss and blood on the sidewalk of hearts... 

This stranger in our town 
lives in tunnels beneath hell 
lives in tunnels way down below your heart... 

push it in and push it out 
you already know what it's all about 
and you'll be begging as usual without any doubt, 

There's a stranger, in our town 
There's a stranger, followin' you around 
There's a stranger whose in our town (who's) 
There's a stranger, 
and he's gonna break your heart 
and then get off on you... 

(solos: 1st - Kid Congo, 2nd - Mustang Dave) 

So, I walk smile like he smiles 
I walk just like he walks 
my right hand to my face like this... 

This stranger in our town 
he once was in another town 
with insects on his face like this... 

with names that are just like names 
and pictures from the rear of trains 
what you want will always be the same, 

There's a stranger, in our town 
There's a stranger, pullin' you around 
There's a stranger, in our town 
There's a stranger, 
and he's gonna break your heart 
and then get off on you... 

Stranger in our town 
stranger he got a burning eye 
he got insects on his face like this 
but, he is such a strange strange stranger 
he is such a strange strange stranger
