Tuxedomoon

Tuxedomoon is an experimental, post-punk, New Wave band from San Francisco, California, United States. The band formed in the late 1970s at the beginning of the punk rock movement. Pulling influence from punk and electronic music, the group, originally consisting of Steve Brown and Blaine L. Reininger, used electronic violins, guitars, screaming vocals and synthesizers to develop a unique "cabaret no-wave" sound.

I was born today
There were strangers there
Cut me off
And left me in a chloroformed cell

I yelled and I yelled
But nobody cared
First day of school
I lost my front teeth

Boys beat me up cause
I wasn't one of them
I fought til I bled
And everyone was scared

Yeah everyone was scared
It isn't my fault
That I'm strange
I wasn't good at kickball

I wasn't good at girls
I used to make a habit of peeing in my pants
Cause I was scared and I couldn't dance
And nobody cared but I learned

Today I'm glad to say
I'm just like to rest
Anonyme is best
Anonyme is best

And life grows stranger every day
Has anybody dared to be more that dead
It isn't my faul
That I'm strange

Mother died today
Or maybe yesterday
I don't know I don't know I don't know
Got to ask my boss to let me go

At the funeral they expected me to cry
Well I didn't
I don't know
I don't know

Everybody's staring at me now
What's gone to their heads
It isn't my fault
That I'm strange

I'm strange I'm strange I'm strange
I'm the stranger
