Purple People Eater

Well, I saw the thing
A comin' out of the sky
It had a one long horn
And a one big eye
I commenced to shakin'
And I said "oohwee
It looks like a Purple
People Eater to me"

It was a one-eyed, one-horned
Flyin' Purple People Eater
One-eyed, one-horned
Flyin' Purple People Eater
One-eyed, one-horned
Flyin' Purple People Eater
Sure looked strange to me

Well, he came down to earth
And he lit in a tree
I said a, "Mister Purple People Eater
Don't eat me"
I heard him say
In a voice so gruff
"I wouldn't eat you
'Cause you're so tough"

It was a one-eyed, one-horned
Flyin' Purple People Eater
One-eyed, one-horned
Flyin' Purple People Eater
One-eyed, one-horned
Flyin' purple people Eater
Sure looked strange to me

I said a, "Mister Purple People Eater
What's your line?"
He said
Eatin' purple people
And it sure is fine
But that's not the reason
That I came to land
I wanna get a job
In a rock 'n' roll band

Well, bless my soul, rock 'n' roll
Flyin' Purple People Eater
Pigeon-toed, under-growed
Flyin' Purple People Eater
One-eyed, one-horned
Flyin' Purple People Eater
What a sight to see

And then he swung from the tree
And he lit on the ground
And he started to rock
A-really rockin' around
It was a crazy ditty
With a swingin' tune, I'm singin'
Bop bapa loop a lap
A loom bam boom

It was a one-eyed, one-horned
Flyin' Purple People Eater
One-eyed, one-horned
Flyin' Purple People Eater
One-eyed, one-horned
Flyin' purple people Eater
What a sight to see

Well, he went on his way
And then what-a you know
I saw him last night
On a TV show
He was blowin' it out
Really knockin' 'em dead
A Playin' rock 'n' roll music
Through the horn on his head

(Saxaphone plays)

It was a one-eyed, one-horned
Flyin' Purple People Eater
One-eyed, one-horned
Flyin' Purple People Eater
One-eyed, one-horned
Flyin' Purple People Eater
Sure looked strange to me
