There's a little house in the countryside A place to be when you need to hide Away from dull suburban skies You feel alive yet you ask me why -'Cause strange is just a better place to be Yeah strange would be the safest place to be There's a holy mirror with Venetian blinds And a Persian rug for a test of time You speak out loud to a Freudian mime -Beware, my dear, she's a friend of mine -'Cause strange is just a better place to be Yeah strange would be the safest place to be There's a motion picture of your innermost dream And the weather forecast turn sonic obscene When the soul presenter gets in between Go paint it black as a summer theme -'Cause strange is just a better place to be Yeah strange would be the safest place to be Let me take you to and beyond the sky You'll see the world through caleidoscope eyes Let me take you down and let me take you around Down the strange ways of your mind Yeah down the strange ways of the mind The world is grey - a void of light Let's spin a ride from black to white -That would be a place to be That would be a place to be There's always up and there's always down Let's go a state with sun inside -That would be a place to be That would be a place to be
