It's Easy to Be Strange

Well once I had a wife, I had three children

I left 'em in the rain outside of Hilton

It's been so many years, I keep forgetting why

I guess I had to die to keep on living

And once I had a mother, one that bore me

But I kill the boy she carried, now I'm only Jack the Strange

I'm picking up whatever's thrown me

Oh Lord, it's easy to be strange

When everyone I meet is just a face

Oh Lord, it's easy to be strange

Yeah, it's easy to be strange

Oh it's easy to be strange

I'm living now up north across the border

I've been working these few months as a loader

I got a woman, I suspect that I won't know her in a year

Maybe I'll head south towards Dakota

Nobody and no place is gonna keep me

You ask me if it's hard, I'll say it's easier by far

I'm gonna keep my wheels beneath me

Oh Lord, it's easy to be strange

Everyone I meet is just a face

Oh Lord, it's easy to be strange

Oh it's easy to be strange

Yeah, it's easy to be strange
