Lyrics
[Verse 1]
He's a perfect stranger like a cross of himself and a fox
He's a feeling arranger and a changer of the ways he talks
He's the unforeseen danger, the keeper of the key to the locks
[Verse 2]
Know when you see him
Nothing can free him
Step aside, open wide
It's the loner
[Verse 3]
If you see him in the subway, he'll be down at the end of the car
Watching your move, until he knows, he knows who you are
When you get off at your station, he'll know, he'll know that you are
[Verse 4]
Know when you see him
Nothing can free him
Step aside, open wide
It's the loner
[Verse 5]
There was a woman he knew, about a year or so ago
She had something that he needed and he pleaded with her not to go
On the day that she left, he died but it did not show
[Verse 6]
Know when you see him
Nothing can free him
Step aside, open wide
It's the loner
