Did you ever see a man turned inside out



He can come and go without a sound



They say ok when they turn you down



'cos someones always smiling when they really frown



Chorus



You turf me out can't keep me down



'cos i'm a stranger on the town



Don't put me down



And i only want a place to rest my head



But if looks could kill i might as well be dead



Get me on my feet, take me to the door



I'll face the law might even get a bed



Repeat chorus twice



Don't need me, won't feed me now



Just say the word, just smile as i'm thrown out



Repeat chorus



And the city's new, so the faces change



I know they're different yet they act the same



I've read the script, and i know the score



I know it's only time before i'm shown the door



Repeat chorus twice



I've got some money, so do you love me now ?



Now will you run me out, and they wonder why i shout



Even in a crowd when you're all alone



It's so far from home there's faces all around



They stare mean and proud,you've gotta get away



You gotta get away



So i'm a stranger,and though you put me down you know i



Aint no clown,and you're a stranger



'cause i'll see you around when the chips are down



And i'm a stranger on the town....



Ooh ooh the city's new,the faces change



I know they're different yet they act the same



'cos i'm a stranger on the town



And i only wanna place to rest my head



If looks could kill i might as well be dead



'cos i'm a stranger on the town, yes i am



And everyone tries to put you down



Nobody wants to have you around



'cos i'm a stranger on the town....yes i am
