Stranger Lyrics - Say What You Will, Clarence... Karl Sold The Truck - Soul Asylum

I said, "Hey, brown girl, I seen your tears through the window 

Of the junk shop downtown" 

Sellin' trinkets from your far off homeland 

Did the Promised Land let you down? 

I said "Hey, young boy, I notice that you ain't afraid to walk next to me 

Old man, you look like you're dying 

Is that all you want is a quarter from me?" 

Oh, you know, sometimes I feel like a stranger, I feel like a stranger 

I'm just another face in a faceless crowd 

I'm just another king in a headless crown 

I'm so alone, you know, I live here in this city 

But this place, it just ain't nobody's home 

Now how many times do I got to tell you? 

There's no such thing as a man made world 

And how many times I got to tell you? 

There's no such thing as a man-tamed girl 

Sometimes I feel like a stranger, I feel like a stranger 

I want to buy some flowers for my mother, if I only had a mother 

You see, I, I got a happy family, but that's, oh, so far away 

Oh, I've got it all here inside me, but I just can't seem to get it out 

But I know that with a little imagination 

We can work this whole goddamn thing out 

Oh, don't make me feel so strange and I feel like a stranger
