Strange Days Songtext
von Smokey Joe & The Kid

Lateef the Truthspeaker Smokey Joe
and The Kid (Smokey Joe and The Kid)
Going take you on a little ride with us (going take you along)
Day and the life (and the day and the life)
And it goes a little something like this


I woke up to a bright morning light
Stepped outside saw the full moon high in the sky
Cracked a little smile at that
Heard a cry and saw a dog fighting with a cat
Through a piece of glass
Hope the owners were getting mad
Looked like a reflection of their pets, or their politicians I bet
Slid down to the metro saw a Chinese man playing the one string violin
Lying next to him a dalmatian
One eye looked like it had the wisdom of the sages
Acquired over ages without ever reading a page
Nodded back at the animal
Continued on my way
The train was just about to leave
The doors were sliding swiftly
Tripping me up
It wasn′t meant to be
But then a beauty of a lady held the doors for me
I wished S'il vous plaît mon ami

Everyday has its own little crazies still now today was strange
Everyday has its own little crazies still now today was strange
Everyday has its own little crazies still now today was strange
Everyday has its own little crazies still now today was strange

One guy on the train he looked kind of strange
He looked like he was half way out of his brain
We locked eyes and he sat next to me just the same
He started saying something high realized bout halfway through
It was every ... something super strange
... everything
I asked him where he studied
Tears in his eyes looked up quick with remembered pain
Said his momma homeschooled him every grade
She has passed away just yesterday
I said I′m very sorry
... contained
That's when a pretty lady sit next to me
She pointed out ... and grabbed my hand to leave ... so sweet
S'il vous plaît mon ami


Everyday has its own little crazies still now today was strange
Everyday has its own little crazies still now today was strange
Everyday has its own little crazies still now today was strange
Everyday has its own little crazies still now today was strange

This girl who was nothing like I′ve ever seen
She looked like stepped straight out of my dream
In fact I had thought that maybe she was part of the hallucination
When I saw her ad station
She gave me heart palpitations
I told her so
She was fatter than her cheeks had a rosy glow
I jumped at the opportunity
Kissing so passionately
That we felt it in our toes
Not a moment to waste we made haste and made it to her place
Broke down her door, broke a vase, broke the baseboard
Broke a few records for how long you can wait
Before the moment you release
It was great
In the morning
In the doorway she gave me the lightest sweetest little kiss
I had ever received
And as she closing the door behind me
She said with a wink S′il vous plaît mon ami

Everyday has its own little crazies still now today was strange
Everyday has its own little crazies still now today was strange
Everyday has its own little crazies still now today was strange
Everyday has its own little crazies still now today was strange
Everyday has its own little crazies still now today was strange
Everyday has its own little crazies still now today was strange
Everyday has its own little crazies still now today was a strange day
Everyday has its own little crazies still now today was a strange day
