An Old Lady Helps Me As I'm Crossing The Road
She Sees The Direction And The Weight Of My Load
She Points To A Man Taking Peace To The Poor
And A Record Is Broken By The Arm Of The Law

And You And I As We Skate, Pitch Or Ride
We Seek Our Adventures In The Places We Hide
The Pendulum Dances, Opinion Poles Swing
Not To Mention The Meaning Of Contemporary Things

PRE-CHORUS
We're Chasing The Feeling That Our Money Can't Buy
Our Pocket Books Empty But We're Ready To Try

CHORUS
On Strange Days Everything Is Stranger
And Don't I Know Nothing Comes Without Danger
On Strange Days Everything Is Stranger
Don't I Know Nothing Comes Without Danger

Drowning Not Waving In A Film Title End
Our Mothers And Fathers Have Postcards To Send
We Calculate The Loss And Unfortunate Things
And The Healthy Economy That Good Warfare Brings

PRE-CHORUS
We're Chasing The Feeling That Our Money Can't Buy
Our Pocket Books Empty But We're Ready To Try

CHORUS
On Strange Days Everything Is Stranger
And Don't I Know Nothing Comes Without Danger
On Strange Days Everything Is Stranger
Don't I Know Nothing Comes Without Danger
