Mr Strangeways walks down the road
On his way to work
Though he's dressed in crazy clothes
He hasn't gone berserk
You see, Mr Strangeways is a funny little man
He's not like you and me
He runs a little curio shop
With his wife named, Emily
His customers are just as strange
They've come to purchase dreams
They come and go, day in, day out
Endless as it seems
You see, Mr Strangeways is a funny little man
He knows it all, you see
He'll fix you up with what-ta you want
Too bad it's make-believe!
Mr Strangeways, strange
Mr Strangeways
Ah, ahh, ahhh
Thought I'd take a walk down there
'Cause I've a broken heart
I told him all about little you
He said, "let's make a start"
Mr Strangeways, sell me a dream
Mr Strangeways, any old thing
Mr Strangeways, make me feel bright
Mr Strangeways
