Purple People Eater

Lyrics

"Hey, man! Where's Kennedy Street?" Well, I saw the thing comin' out of the sky It had one long horn and one big eye I started to shake and I said, "Ooh-eee! It looks like a purple people eater to me!" It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater One-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater One-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater Sure looks strange to me Well, he come down to earth and he sat in a tree I said, "Mr. Purple People Eater, don't eat me!" I heard him say in a voice so gruff: "I wouldn't eat you 'cause you're too tough" It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater One-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater One-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater Sure looks strange to me I said, "Mr. Purple People Eater, what's your line?" He said, "Eatin' purple people and it sure is fine But that's not the reason that I come to land I wanna get a job in an R&B band" Well goodness me, R&B, flyin' purple people eater Pigeon-toed, undergrowed, flyin' purple people eater (He wears white boots) Friendly little people eater Sure looks strange to me And then he swung from the tree and he jumped on the ground And started to belt a real groovy sound It was a ravin' number with a swingin' tune "Singin' doo wah diddy diddy doo wah do" Well goodness me, R&B, flyin' purple people eater Pigeon-toed, undergrowed, flyin' purple people eater "I like white boots" Friendly little people eater Sure looks strange to me And then he went on his way, and what do ya know I see him last night on a TV show He was blowing it out, really knockin' em dead Playin' R&B music through the horn in his head [Sped-up saxophone solo plays "Satisfaction"]
