Strange Powers



Lyrics

on the ferris wheel, looking out on coney island
under more stars than there are prostitues in thailand
our hair in the air, our lips blue from cotton candy
when we kiss it feels like a flying saucer landing.

and i can't sleep cause you got strange powers.
you're in my dreams, strange powers.

in Las Vegas where the electric bills are straggring.
the decor hog wild and the entertainment saccharin.
what a golden age, what a time of right and reason.
the consumers king and unhappyness is treason.

and i can't sleep cause you got strange powers.
you're in my dreams, strange powers.

the sun falls down like money.
the moon pours down like mercury.
the stars fall down like money.
and you come down to me.

and i can't sleep cause you got strange powers.
you're in my dreams, strange powers.
