Текст песни Stranger in a Strange Land - Leon Russell

Whoa-oh-oh

How many days has it been since I was born?
How many days 'til I die?
Do I know any ways that I can make you laugh?
Or do I only know how to make you cry?

When the baby looks around him, it's such a sight to see
He shares the simple secret with the wise man

He's a stranger in a strange land
Just a stranger in a strange land
Tell me why he's a stranger in a strange land?
Whoa, stranger in a strange land

How many miles will it take to see the sun?
And how many years 'til it's done?
Kiss my confusion away in the night
Lay by my side when the morning comes

And the baby looks around him, and shares his bed of hay
With the pillow in the palace of the king (ah)

He's a stranger in a strange land
Tell me why he's a stranger in a strange land?
Woo, just a stranger in a strange land
Just a stranger in a strange land

Well, I don't exactly know what's going on in the world today
Don't know what there is to say about the way the people are treating each other
Not like brothers

Leaders take us far away from ecology with mythology, and astrology
He is got some words to say about the way we live today
Why can't we learn to love each other?

It's time to learn a new face to the whole worldwide human race
Stop the money chase, lay back, relax
And get back on the human track
Stop racing toward oblivion

Oh, such a sad, sad state we're in, and that's a thing
Do you recognize the bells of truth when you hear 'em ring?
Won't you stop and listen to the children sing? (Stranger in s strange land)
Won't you sing it, children?
Won't you come on and sing it, children? (Stranger in a strange land)

Woah-oh, sing it one more time, I didn't hear you (stranger in a strange land)
(Stranger in a strange land)
(Stranger in a strange land)
(Stranger in a strange land)
