strangers lyrics

[Verse 1]
If I can fit my dreams
You say the same things over and over
Into an ABAB rhyme scheme
You say the same things over and over

Love is a way of passing on our genes
Love is because we want to further our genes
God is a scientist, he's just found out about us
He's published a study but he don't know much about us

[Chorus]
When I die I won't become a ghost
Because I'll have nowhere to haunt
f*ck this town and f*ck my dirty hands
When you're strange then the critics gotta be stranger
But they're just strangers

[Verse 2]
Society wants me to f*ck, well f*ck 'em
Car Seat is a genetic stop sign
I sleep lying next to a mirror
Car Seat is a menace to the public

Love is a way of advancing our species
Love is because we want to keep up our species
God is a director and he's just found out about us
He's talked to our agents but he don't know much about us
[Chorus]
When I die I won't become a ghost
Because I'll have nowhere to haunt
f*ck this town and f*ck my dirty hands
When you're strange then if they like you then they gotta be stranger
But they're just strangers

[Bridge]
Car Seat's nervous and the lights are bright
When I was a kid I fell in love with Michael Stipe
I took lyrics out of context and thought
"He must be speaking to me"

[Outro]
I won't last too much longer
I'm already starting to run out of places
For faces in my head
They're all starting to look the same
I won't last too much longer
I'm already starting to run out of places
For faces in my head
They're all starting to look the same
