Lyrics

[Verse 1]
How many days has it been
Since I was born
How many years until I die
Do I know any ways
That I can make you laugh
Or do I only know how to make you cry?
[PreChorus]
When the baby looks around him
It's such a sight to see
He shares a simple secret
With the wise man
[Chorus]
He's a stranger in a strange land
Just a stranger in a strange land
A stranger in a strange land
Just a stranger in a strange land
[Instrumental]
How many miles will it take
To see the sun
And how many years until it's done
Kiss my confusion away in the night
Lay by my side till the morning comes
[PreChorus]
And the baby looks around him
And shares his bed of hay
With the burro in the palace of the king
[Chorus]
He's a stranger in a strange land
Tell me why
He's a stranger in a strange land
He's a stranger in a strange land
Just a stranger in a strange land
[Instrumental]
I don't exactly know
What's going on in the world today
Don't know what there is to say
About the way the people are treating
Each other, not like brothers
Leaders take us far away from ecology
With mythology and astrology
There's gotta be a better way
A better way, a better way, yeah
Why can't we learn to love each other
It's time to turn a new face
To the whole world wide human race
Stop the money chase
Lay back, get back, relax
Get on the human track
Stop racing toward oblivion
Oh, such a sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad state we're living in
Do you recognize the bells of truth
When you hear them ring?
Won't you stop and listen
To the children sing
Oh, come on and sing it to me
[Chorus]
He's a stranger in a strange land
He's just a stranger in a strange land
Tell me why
He's a stranger in a strange land
He's just a stranger in a strange land
Stranger in a strange land
Stranger in a strange land
[Chorus]
Stranger in a strange land
Stranger in a strange land
Stranger in a strange land
Tell me why
Stranger in a strange land
Stranger in a strange land
