Well i saw the thing cominand' out of the sky
it had the one long horn, one big eye
i commenced to shakinand' and i said andquot;ooh-eeeandquot;
it looks like a purple eater to me
It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyinand' purple people eater
(one-eyed, one-horned, flyinand' purple people eater)
a one-eyed, one-horned, flyinand' purple people eater
sure looks strange to me (one eye?)
Well he came down to earth and he lit in a tree
i said mr. purple people eater, donand't eat me
i heard him say in a voice so gruff
andlt;i wouldnand't eat you cuz youand're so toughandgt;
It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyinand' purple people eater
one-eyed, one-horned flyinand' purple people eater
one-eyed, one-horned, flyinand' purple people eater
sure looks strange to me (one horn?)
I said mr. purple people eater, whatand's your line
he said itand's eatinand' purple people and it sure is fine
but thatand's not the reason that i came to land
andlt;i wanna get a job in a rock and roll bandandgt;
Well bless my soul, rock and roll, flyinand' purple people eater
pigeon-toed, undergrowed, flyinand' purple people eater
(we wear short shorts)
flyinand' purple people eater
sure looks strange to me
And then he swung from the tree and he lit on the ground
he started to rock, really rockinand' around
it was a crazy ditty with a swinginand' tune
andlt;sing a boop boop aboopa lopa lum bam boomandgt;
Well bless my soul, rock and roll, flyinand' purple people eater
pigeon-toed, undergrowed, flyinand' purple people eater
andlt;i like short shortsandgt;
flyinand' little people eater
sure looks strange to me (purple people?)
And then he went on his way, and then what do ya know

he was blowing it out, aand'really knockinand' em dead
playinand' rock and roll music through the horn in his head
andlt;andlt;clarinet soloandgt;andgt;
