Lyrics:A Stranger's Eye

From This Might Be A Wiki
A Stranger's Eye
By: They Might Be Giants
Year: 1997

I met a girl, we had a beer She shouted something I could not hear The bar was loud, she yelled into my ear, she yelled into my ear Gone was my mind and all I could hear was the yelling in my ear Felt just like I was walking in a stranger's eye

I walked Into a stranger's eye It was unfamiliar and disturbing And I looked out of a stranger's eye at everything

I picked up the paperback that you put down Skimmed the introduction and soon I found That I was totally engrossed in it, I was engrossed in it This was exactly the type of thing that I would never read That's when I found myself walking in a stranger's eye

I walked Into a stranger's eye It was unfamiliar and disturbing And I looked out of a stranger's eye at everything

When I'm alone, I'm by myself And when I'm mad, beside myself But what's the name for when you are inside the eye of someone else? How do I say this thing that happened to me, to me, to me? What is it called when you're walking in a stranger's eye?

I walked Into a stranger's eye It was unfamiliar and disturbing And I looked out of a stranger's eye at everything

And I walked into a stranger's eye It was unfamiliar and disturbing And I looked out of a stranger's eye at everyone and everything
