I had a strange day today As I went out on my own Late night hanging in the clouds And on the telephone The shops were all shut and boarded up The trees stood around in the wind I walked down a familiar street And something wasn't the same I had a strange day yesterday Drifted down to the sea When I found I was home again Something caught up with me Then suddenly a hole appeared in my shoe My tie came undone My scarf unraveled and fell to the ground Swallowed by the tide I'll have a strange day tomorrow Go down to catch the sun And if anybody talks to me I'll say I'm on the run I'll search for strange days wherever I can In landscapes twisted and bare But there's nobody left that cares They've all gone upstairs
