I've Seen The Stranger Lyrics

I've seen the stranger walk past

the lamp post that lights my way

I've seen the stranger walk past

I'm not walking over there today

I know who he is And I've heard what he can do

I see him walkin' round' all over the place

In a crowd or alone it seems he's hiding his face

He is down to the bone he has a shoe with no lace

I believe that I will try to stay as far away

From the last surviving stray

He gets his way with a knife its just a day in the life

Of a stranger we all know so very well

I've seen the stranger walk past

the looking glass that hangs on my wall

Yes I've seen the stranger walk past

I used to know the guy when he had it all

family and friends sorry to see that end

I see him walkin' round' all over the place

In a crowd or alone it seems he's hiding his face

He is down to the bone he has a shoe with no lace

I believe that I will try to stay as far away

From the last surviving stray

He gets his way with a knife its just a day in the life

Of a stranger we all know so very well
