STRANGE GIRL

You're a strange girl, you come from a strange family 
You're a strange girl, I don't understand your vanity 

Your mother's taking pills all day, she's looking to escape 
Your uncle's in the County Jail for statutory rape 
Just another runner never made it to the tape 
Your cousin gets his kicks setting everything on fire 
Your little brother always lets the air out of my tyres 
Your sister wants to prove that she's an object of desire 

You're a strange girl, you come from a strange family 
You're a strange girl, I don't understand your fantasy 

Your father's a collector and his things are a delight 
He likes cameras and binoculars and everything in sight, 
He collects them in a wagon in the middle of the night 
Every holiday's a nightmare and it's giving me the chills 
Everybody ends up fighting, I remember it still 
The only thing that they agree on is it's me they want to kill 

You're a strange girl, you come from a strange family 
You're a strange girl, I don't understand your vanity 

I think we ought to break up, I could really use the rest 
Everything I like you say is something you detest 
But every time I try to leave you say you love me best 
I was looking for some mystery, I thought you'd be the girl 
I really must admit you were like nothing in this world 
I finally got the oyster but I never found the pearl 

You're a strange girl, you come from a strange family 
You're a strange girl, I don't understand your vanity 
You're a strange girl, you come from a strange family 
You're a strange girl, I think you're headed for calamity 

Strange strange...girl 
Strange strange...girl 
Strange strange...Most peculiar! 
Strange strange...girl
