We are the strange ones The people you heard about You’d rather not acknowledge us Time for a turnabout We are the strange ones The weird weirdos who do things you think only a few weird weirdos do Those people who must live very far away The ones who make you roll your eyes all day That think and act and look that way You think we’re just a few… But there’s a slew We’re here to recruit
Tell your children time to change… We’ll add them to our flock of strange
When you see the sides of issues and life Hexagons and circles squaring off The gears in your weird crank open I’m hopin’ See it from above The mass acceptance is the crazed People lounging in a maze… In a blanket haze… It lasts for days… Soaking up the rays Of being a happy cog Who buys products that shine… And thinks celebrity’s fine And gets their body all sick on the processed slime And thinks it’s funny to say “bacon LOL” This is a hell
We are the strange ones
So come on kids paint the strange one’s spackle Shake off your shackle don’t give your demographic to cruel and needy greed Don’t let them feed steer them to their knees Until we rearrange let’s force the change make their savage selfishness seem so strange
We are the strange ones Here to repossess the mess Think of the animals… Think of the planet full Think of your brothers…Think of some others Or we’ll smother you with our strangeness
Strange is not a splashin’ jacket… It’s not a hundred tattoos It’s how you give and how you amend And all the places you refuse to spend And all the madness you refuse to accept It’s not well kept But it’s not inept
We are the strange ones Trying hard to be full of love Trying not to buy things made by slaves Trying not to sell things that scratch our souls Trying hard to breathe while we accept we’re not in control
It’s a strange way to live… Strange trying to give Giving facts, reason, kindness, love Giving gifts without the wrapping… But they’re still napping
We are the strange ones
You think we’re strange to care… That’s the saddest tear But we’ll still care from way out there we’re more than a prayer we’ll always care
We are the strange ones… We are the strange ones… We are the strange ones You think we’re just a few… But there’s a slew We’re here to recruit
