Stranger In A Strange Land

(album: Midnight Rainbows - 1975)

Hey
Alright

Well

How many days has it been since I was born?
How many days 'til I die?
Do I know any ways that I can make you laugh
Or do I only know how to make you cry?

When the baby looks around him
It's such a sight to see
He share a simple secret
With the wise man, yeah

He's a stranger in a strange land
He's a stranger in a strange land
He's a stranger in a strange land
He's a stranger in a strange land

Hey
Yeah, hey

How many miles will it take to see the sun?
And a-how many years 'til it's done?
Kiss my confusion away in the night
Lay by my side when the morning comes

And the baby looks around him
And shares his bed of hay
With a burro in the palace
Of the king, now, yeah

He's a stranger in a strange land
Ah, he's a stranger in a strange land
Ah, he's a stranger in a strange land
I'm talking about a stranger in a strange land

Well, I don't exactly know
What's wrong with the world today
Don't know what there is to say
'Bout the way the people are treating each other, not like brothers

Leaders take us far away
From ecology with mythology and astrology
Got alot to say
'Bout the way we need to learn to love one another now

Whoa, it's time to turn a brand new face
To the human race
Good God Almighty, stop the money chase
Lay back, relax
Get back on the human track

Stop going toward oblivion
Whoa, what a freaked out stage we're in
And that's the thing
Can you recognize bells of freedom
When they ring now?

Good God Almighty in the morning
Help us to change the scene
Whoa, oh, yeah
Good God Almighty
I'm talking 'bout stranger, now, now, stranger
Whoa, oh, yeah

I wonder have you ever been a stranger, stranger
Stranger, yeah, in a strange land
Stranger in a strange land
A stranger in a strange land
