Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Everybody's talking
And no one says a word
Everybody's making love
And no one really cares
There's Nazis in the bathroom
Just below the stairs
[Verse 2]
Always something happening
And nothing going on
There's always something cooking
And nothing in the pot
They're starving back in China
So finish what you got
[Verse 3]
Nobody told me
There'd be days like these
Nobody told me
There'd be days like these
Nobody told me
There'd be days like these
Strange days indeed
Strange days indeed
[Verse 4]
Everybody's running
And no one makes a move
Well everybody's a winner
And nothing left to lose
There's a little yellow idol
To the north of Kathmandu
Everybody's flying
And no one leaves the ground
Well everybody's crying
And no one makes a sound
There's a place for us in movies
You just gotta lay around
[Verse 5]
Nobody told me
There'd be days like these
Nobody told me
There'd be days like these
Nobody told me
There'd be days like these
Strange days indeed
Most peculiar mama
[Verse 6]
Everybody's smoking
No one's getting high
Everybody's flying
And never touch the sky
There's U.F.O.s over New York
And I ain't too surprised
[Verse 7]
Nobody told me
There'd be days like these
Nobody told me
There'd be days like these
Nobody told me
There'd be days like these
Strange days indeed
Most peculiar mama
