Five Man Electrical Band - I'm A Stranger Here Lyrics
Well I’m a stranger here in this place called EarthAnd I was sent down here to discover the worthOf your little blue planet third from the sunCome on and show me what you’ve doneWe got the aero plane, we got the automobileWe got sky scraper buildings made of glass and steelWe’ve got synthetic food that nearly tastes realAnd a little white pill that makes you feelHey, A whole lot better when you get out of bedYou take one in the morning for the lovelier headWe got everything everybody needs to surviveSurely the good life has arrivedI think your atmosphere is hurting my eyesAnd your concrete mountains are blacking the skiesNow I don’t say that you’ve been telling me liesBut why do I hear those children’s criesI’m a stranger here, I’m just looking aroundI see the aero planes carrying the bombsWhy, you’ve even found people to drop them onYou know you can’t keep what you take by forceBut it’s only my first impression of course.Well I’m a stranger here on your planet EarthWe got the rivers and the mountains and the valleys and the treesWe got the birds in the sky and the fish in the seaWe got the –Oh you crazy fools don’t you know you had it madeYou were living in paradiseBut take it from one who knowsWho knows the gates of Heaven can closeI only pray that you take my adviceBecause Paradise won’t come twice.Well I’m a stranger here in this place called EarthAnd I was sent down here to discover the worthOf your little blue planet third from the sunI think I’ll go back home where I come from.
