Strangeways
(blackmore/gillan/glover)
Strange
Strange
I was born into
Confusion
My mother said to me when you
Become a man youll understand
But its 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
Theyre 20,000 strong
But they always get depleted by the cavalry
Salvation is at hand its 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 thats on the 2nd page
The alien has landed
Finger in his ear
Cant hear a word I am saying
But that aint 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
