Well I saw the thing comin’ out of the sky
It had one long horn and one big eye
I commenced to shakin’ and I said ‘ooo-eee’
It looks like a purple people eater to me

It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
One-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
One-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple pеople eater
Surе looks strange to me

Well he came down to earth and he lit in a tree
I said Mr. Purple people eater, don’t eat me
I heard him say in a voice so gruff
I wouldn’t eat you 'cause you’re so tough

It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
One-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
One-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
Sure looks strange to me

I said Mr. Purple people eater, what’s your line
He said eatin’ purple people and it sure is fine
But that’s not the reason why I came to land
I wanna get a job in a rock and roll band

Well bless my soul, rock and roll
Flyin’ purple people eater
Pigeon-toed, undergrowed
Flyin’ purple people eater
(He wear short shorts)
Friendly little people eater
What a sight to see
Well then he swung from the tree and he lit on the ground
Then started to rock and really rockin’ around
He was a crazy kid with a swingin’ tune
Sing a bop bop a loopa, lopa loom bam boom

Well bless my soul, rock and roll
Flyin’ purple people eater
Pigeon-toed, undergrowed
Flyin’ purple people eater
(I like short shorts)
Friendly little purple eater
What a sight to see

Well he went on his way and what do you know
I saw him last night on a TV show
He was blowing it out, a really knockin’ em dead
Playin’ rock and roll music from the horn in his head

It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
One-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
One-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
Sure looks strange to me

Well bless my soul, rock and roll
Flyin’ purple people eater
Pigeon-toed, undergrowed
Flyin’ purple people eater
One-eyed, one-horned
Flyin’ purple people eater
What a sight to see
