Strange Life

Lyrics

In the beginning, there was darkness Then, came light Sound was next And then came, the beat (The Arabian Prince) (Strange life, strange life, strange life) The end's not near so don't scream and shout Live a strange life until your time runs out Do what you like and do what you please Like an eighty-year old lady tryin' to do a strip tease Controversy is an everyday thing People live their lives like puppets on a string Doing the same old thing at the same old time It gets even more monotonous than the nursery rhyme Don't let society get you down Live a strange life like me Don't let people mess you around Live a strange life like me The Arabian Prince is as strange as can be Living his life in pyramid city Swinging in the tomb is how he gets his fix He gets a natural purple high on a backwards mix (verse played backwards) I have a camel so conceit He only wants to dance to the new wave beat He brings the ladies to my [?] tribe They make a wish then they close their eyes I [?] shake my leg [?] you step aside But little do they know they're all going for a ride Hey, you know it I'm from the east that rises like the sun If your boyfriend is a drag come have some fun With a real desert prince who sleeps all day Then opens his doors at night so the women can play Ah, nice Ah Come slip inside Don't try to hide I got something for you tonight Oh baby it's really bright Now touch it Step inside and feel my beat Take a drink, close your eyes and feel my body heat The Arabian Prince, can you understand that? And that's a fact Hey [?] won't you scratch it Scratch it Scratch it Scratch it Scratch it, scratch it, scratch it Breakdown! Feel it! Yeah, that sounds real good Everything seems to be coming together But, but hey we don't have an ending, what are we gonna do? (I don't know) Well, we gotta put something there, what are we gonna put there? (Well I could put some guitar) Nah, we don't want any guitar, how 'bout get the old lady back in there? (old lady sound) Nah nah, never mind forget the old lady So, what are we gonna do? (Damn, I don't know) Well I got an idea (Yeah?) Let's end it, right here! [?] saddle up the camel, let's go home
