He's a perfect stranger

Like a cross of himself and a fox

He's a feeling arranger

And a changer of the ways he talks



He's the unforseen danger

The keeper of the key to the locks

Know when you see him

Nothing can free him



Step aside, open wide

It's the loner



If you see him in the subway

He'll be down at the end of the car

Watching you move

Until he knows he knows who you are

When you get off at your station alone

He'll know that you are



Know when you see him

Nothing can free him

Step aside, open wide...



I wanna live with a cinnamon girl

I could be happy

the rest of my life

With a cinnamon girl



A dreamer of pictures

I run in the night

You see us together

chasing the moonlight

My cinnamon girl



Ten silver saxes,

a bass with a bow

The drummer relaxes

and waits between shows

For his cinnamon girl



A dreamer of pictures

I run in the night

You see us together

chasing the moonlight

My cinnamon girl...



Be on my side,

I'll be on your side, baby

There is no reason for you to hide

It's so hard for me

staying here all alone

When you could be taking me

for a ride.



Yeah, she could drag me

over the rainbow,

Send me away

Down by the river

I shot my baby

Down by the river

Dead.



You take my hand,

I'll take your hand

Together we may get away

This much madness is

too much sorrow

It's impossible to make it today.



Yeah, she could drag me

over the rainbow,

Send me away

Down by the river

I shot my baby

Down by the river

Dead.



Be on my side,

I'll be on your side, baby

There is no reason for you to hide

It's so hard for me

staying here all alone

When you could be taking me

for a ride.
