Strange Town

Found myself in a strange town

Though I've only been here for three weeks now

I've got blisters on my feet

Tryin' to find a friend in Oxford Street

I bought an A to Z guide book

Tryin' to find the clubs and YMCAs

But when you ask in a strange town

They say, "Don't know, don't care"

"And I've got to go, mate"

They worry themselves about feelin' low

(Oh-oh-oh)

They worry themselves about the dreadful snow

(Oh-oh-oh)

They all ignore me 'cause they don't know

(Oh-oh-oh)

I'm really a spaceman from those UFOs

(Oh-oh-oh)

You've got to move in a straight line

You've got to walk and talk in four/four time

You can't be weird in a strange town

You'll be betrayed by your accent and manners

You've got to wear the right clothes

Be careful not to pick or scratch your nose

You can't be nice in a strange town

'Cause we don't know, don't care

And we got to go, man

Rush my money to the record shops

(Oh-oh-oh)

I stop off in a back street, buy myself a snuff

(Oh-oh-oh)

We got our own manifesto, be kind to queers

(Oh-oh-oh)

And I'm so glad the revolution's here

(Oh-oh-oh)

It's nice and warm now!

I've finished with clubs where the music's loud

'Cause I don't see a face in a single crowd

There's no one there

I look in the mirror but I can't be seen

Just a thin, clean layer of a misty sheen

Looking back at me

Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Strange town

Break it up, break it up

Break it up, break it up

Break it up, break it up

Break it up, break it up

Break it up, break it up

Burn it down, shake it up

Break it up, break it up
