Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Oh, hello, Mr. Soul

I dropped by to pick up a reason

For the thought that I caught

That my head is the event of the season

Why in crowds, just the trace of my face

Could seem so pleasin'

I'll cop out to the change

But a stranger is putting the tease on

[Verse 2]

I was down on a frown

When the messenger brought me a letter

I was raised by the praise of a fan

Who said I upset her

Any girl in the world could have easily known me better

[Verse 3]

She said, you're strange

But don't change, and I let her

[Verse 4]

In a while, will the smile on my face turn to plaster?

Stick around while the clown who is sick

Does the trick of disaster

[Verse 5]

For the race of my head and my face is moving much faster

Is it strange? I should change

I don't know, why don't you ask her?

[Verse 6]

Is it strange? I should change

I don't know, why don't you ask her?

Is it strange? I should change

I don't know, why don't you ask her?

Is it strange? I should change

I don't know, why don't you ask her?

Is it strange? I should change

I don't know
