[00:01.09] The Purple People Eater
[00:02.17] by Sheb Wooley
[00:03.36]
[00:06.14] Well I saw the thing comin' out of the sky
[00:08.55]
[00:09.18] It had the one long horn, one big eye
[00:12.17] I commenced to shakin' and I said "ooh-eee"
[00:15.45] It looks like a purple eater to me
[00:17.89]
[00:18.43] It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater
[00:21.32] (One-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater)
[00:24.77] A one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater
[00:27.70] Sure looks strange to me (One eye?)
[00:31.40]
[00:32.02] Well he came down to earth and he lit in a tree
[00:34.21] I said Mr. Purple People Eater, don't eat me
[00:35.50] I heard him say in a voice so gruff
[00:40.01] I wouldn't eat you cuz you're so tough
[00:43.09]
[00:43.50] It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater
[00:46.23] One-eyed, one-horned flyin' purple people eater
[00:49.20] One-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater
[00:52.16] Sure looks strange to me (One horn?)
[00:54.55]
[00:55.12] I said Mr. Purple People Eater, what's your line
[00:57.55] He said it's eatin' purple people and it sure is fine
[01:01.27] But that's not the reason that I came to land
[01:03.38] I wanna get a job in a rock and roll band
[01:07.29]
[01:07.55] Well bless my soul, rock and roll, flyin' purple people eater
[01:10.45] Pigeon-toed, undergrowed, flyin' purple people eater
[01:14.36] (We wear short shorts)
[01:15.71] Flyin' purple people eater
[01:16.79] Sure looks strange to me
[01:18.24]
[01:19.10] And then he swung from the tree and he lit on the ground
[01:21.83] He started to rock, really rockin' around
[01:25.64] It was a crazy ditty with a swingin' tune
[01:28.71] Sing a boop boop aboopa lopa lum bam boom
[01:31.75]
[01:32.30] Well bless my soul, rock and roll, flyin' purple people eater
[01:35.33] Pigeon-toed, undergrowed, flyin' purple people eater
[01:38.07] I like short shorts
[01:39.79] Flyin' little people eater
[01:41.12] Sure looks strange to me (Purple People?)
[01:42.44]
[01:44.15] And then he went on his way, and then what do ya know
[01:47.66] I saw him last night on a TV show
[01:49.06] He was blowing it out, a'really knockin' em dead
[01:53.59] Playin' rock and roll music through the horn in his head
