Sunday All Over The World - Strange Girls lyrics

"Are you not afraid? Are you not afraid of the werewolves?" he said "When the moon is full they prowl," he said "You stand close to me and you'll be safe forever," he said "I'll protect you." And I believed him. He told me to close my eyes, make a wish So I did and as I did he kissed me He told me stories of tradition and fairy-tale glory, Took me so high I could fly! "Who could have made up such a story?" I said As I returned to the ground, my head racing. He did, he said, and I distinctly got a feeling he was tricking me I felt the monster's breath on the back of my neck Like the cool caress of Japanese handmaidens "I know you are a strange girl, but there's stranger girls to come." I was still with fear as he whispered in my ear! Derelict building In the old part of town ............ Neon skyline Dancing in the dark shadows Strange girls don't want maybes, promises, or babies Like the smell of burning houses ............ stories of bombs and robberies Strange mercenaries wearing inverted James Dean T-shirts Some kind of dead hero U2 on the ghetto blaster, they call it rock 'n' roll? Bring in the new, forget the old! Derelict building In the old part of town ............ Neon skyline Dancing in the dark shadows Oh yes, I know I'm a strange girl, But please don't tell me these stories anymore I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep And maybe not conceive when I get married And then they'll find some excuse, You know, some excuse to burn me, Burn me as a witch, 'Cos that's what happens, oh yes, that happens to strange girls.
