(N. Young)
|
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 unforeseen 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,
|
It's the loner.
|
|
There was a woman he knew
|
About a year or so ago.
|
She had something
|
that he needed
|
And he pleaded
|
with her not to go.
|
On the day that she left,
|
He died,
|
but it did not show.
|
Know when you see him,
|
Nothing can free him.
|
Step aside, open wide,
|
It's the loner.
