What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Found myself in a strange town
2
Though I've only been here for three weeks now
3
I've got blisters on my feet
4
Trying find a friend in Oxford Street
5
I bought an A to Z guide book
6
Trying to find the clubs and YMCAs
7
But when you ask in a strange town
8
They say don't know, don't care
9
And I've got to go, mate
10
They worry themselves about feeling low
11
They worry themselves about the dreadful snow
12
They all ignore me 'cause they don't know
13
I'm really a spaceman from those UFOs
14
You've got to move in a straight line
15
You've got to walk and talk in four, four time
16
You can't be weird in a strange town
17
You'll be betrayed by your accent and manners
18
You've got to wear the right clothes
19
Be careful not to pick or scratch your nose
20
You can't be nice in a strange town
21
'Cause we don't know, don't care
22
And we got to go, man
23
Rush my money to the record shops
24
I stop off in a back street
25
Buy myself a snort
26
We got our own manifesto
27
Be kind to queers
28
And I'm so glad the revolution's here
29
It's nice and warm now!
30
I've finished with clubs where the music's loud
31
'Cause I don't see a face in a single crowd
32
There's no one there
33
I look in the mirror
34
But I can't be seen
35
Just a thin, clean layer of mister sheen
36
Looking back at me
37
Oh, oh
38
Found myself in a strange town
39
Though I've only been here for three weeks now
40
I've got blisters on my feet
41
Trying find a friend in Oxford Street
42
I bought an A to Z guide book
43
Trying to find the clubs and YMCAs
44
They say don't know, don't care
45
And I've got to go, mate
46
They worry themselves about feeling low
47
They worry themselves about the dreadful snow
48
They all ignore me 'cause they don't know
49
I'm really a spaceman from those UFOs
50
Strange town
51
Break it up
52
Burn it down, shake it up
53
Break it up
