Ian Freud
People are Strange
You’re never alone with a mobile phone
No matter how weird you’re not on your own
There’s always someone out there who’ll play along
And tell you you’re right when both you know you’re wrong

We stay in the shadows
Hiding from the sun
Friends with everybody
Searching for someone
Who are you now
And who were you then?
When I was lost and in need of a friend

People are strange
Or hadn’t you heard?
Strangers in deed - even stranger in words
So what do you see
And what do you feel - do you remember me?
People are strange or hadn’t you heard?
Strangers in deed - even stranger in words
Now I feel like going down

Throw down a gin and forget all your sins
But they crawl up the windows trying to get in
They rattle the glass and shake all the doors
Until you can’t feel and can’t take any more
We stay in the shadows
Hiding from the sun
Friends with everybody
Searching for someone
Who are you now
And who were you then?
When I was lost and in need of a friend

People are strange
Or hadn’t you heard?
Strangers in deed - even stranger in words
So what do you see
And what do you feel - do you remember me?
People are strange or hadn’t you heard?
Strangers in deed - even stranger in words
Now I feel like going down
