LYRICS by David Cohen
You talk down to the party
like you are mocking the fools you sought
Your plans deceptively hid behind more lies
Your fake tan is apricot
You have one eye on your dinner, as, you watch Iran on Fox
And all the world screams “you’re not very smart sir”
“Not very smart sir” and . . .
You’re so strange
You probably think these wrongs aren’t about you
You’re so strange (you’re so strange)
You’re out to get the ones who deride you
Aren’t you, aren’t you
You cheated many times we know
which hasn’t been well received
Then you said that you’d win or it isn’t fair
and that you will never leave
So you hate the things we’ve always loved
And one is to be free
You had some schemes with those clowns in your office, clowns in your office and . . .
You’re so strange
You probably think these wrongs aren’t about you
You’re so strange (you’re so strange)
You’ll never trust someone who denied you
Will you, will you, will you?
You had some schemes with those clowns in your office, clowns in your office and . . .
You’re so strange
You probably think these wrongs aren’t about you
You’re so strange (you’re so strange)
You’ll never seek someone who might guide you
Would you, would you?
Well, it’s clear you’ve set up a hefty quota
Of those you would like to see shunned
Then you flew a “dragnet” up to Minnesota
To keep the local dissent on the run
We’re aware you should be serving time
And if you’re not, you’ve found a judge you could buy
Or some strife with a loose end, strife with a loose end, and . . .
You’re so strange
You probably think these wrongs aren’t about you
You’re so strange (you’re so strange)
Will you, will you, will you now
You’re so strange
You probably think these wrongs aren’t about you
You’re so strange
You’ll never see the hate that’s inside you
You’re so strange
