Lyrics

This is Gordon G. Goodvoice with an on the spot report
I'm standing at this moment about 50
Feet from where it actually landed
I have an intelligent looking man, an
Eye witness here who saw the whole thing
Sir, would you tell us what you saw?
Well I saw this thing coming out of the
Sky, he had one long horn and one big eye
I commenced to shaking, I said "Oo-wee!
He looked like a purple people eater to me"
What was it really, sir?
It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flying purple people eater
A one-eyed, one-horned, flying purple people eater?
A one-eyed, one-horned, flying purple
People eater, sure looked strange to me
Then what happened?
He came down to earth and lit in a tree
And 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 so tough"
It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flying purple people eater
Sir, would you explain how you made that amazing little sound?
Yeah man, that's easy, I just modulated my voice
Amazing
I said "Mr. Purple People Eater, what's your line?"
He said "Eating purple people is sure fine
But that's not the reason I come to land
I wanna get a job in the monkey's band"
He was a cactus-toed, rocket boat, flying purple people eater
A pigeon-toed, undergrowth, flying purple people eater
A one-eyed, one-horned, flying purple people eater
Sure looked strange to me
Then he swung from a tree and he lit on the ground
And I started to rock, really rockin' around
A crazy ditty with a swingin' tune
"Sing a bop-bop, a boop-a-lap, a loom-bam-boom"
It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flying purple people eater
What happened to him, did he fly away?
No, man, you see that little purple guy standing right over there?
You mean the one with the horn in his head?
That's right
Amazing
Hey, come here little purple shorty
Turn up that horn in your head and play one for us, okay?
Amazing
Yeah, boy, play it Purp
I call him Purple Shorts
Amazing
Hey little short purple shorty
Would you like a little short purple drink or something?
Amazing
Yeah
