The Lyrics
stranger than you'd like...i see your glances
wond'ring if i'm right...don't like the chances
i seem raving nuts..before too long, you knew
something in my eyes...was just like lightning
something in my smile...was rather fright'ning
something in my mind...must have gone askew
stranger than you'd like...more than most people
i was stranger than you'd like...crack any moment
when i'm manic and then low...you begin to know
lunacy's a chance, you say
a weird embracing trance away
and...
ever since that fright...you've broke the tether
disappeared from sight...you're gone forever
turns out you were right...i'm stranger than you'd like
(runs fingers across lips)
glooby glooby gloo..gloo gloo gloo gloo
glooby glooby gloo..gloo gloo gloo gloo
glooby glooby gloo..gloo gloo gloo gloo
wond'ring if i'm right...don't like the chances
i seem raving nuts..before too long, you knew
something in my eyes...was just like lightning
something in my smile...was rather fright'ning
something in my mind...must have gone askew
stranger than you'd like...more than most people
i was stranger than you'd like...crack any moment
when i'm manic and then low...you begin to know
lunacy's a chance, you say
a weird embracing trance away
and...
ever since that fright...you've broke the tether
disappeared from sight...you're gone forever
turns out you were right...i'm stranger than you'd like
(runs fingers across lips)
glooby glooby gloo..gloo gloo gloo gloo
glooby glooby gloo..gloo gloo gloo gloo
glooby glooby gloo..gloo gloo gloo gloo

Creepy but fun - could almost be another "Psycho" song.
Will admit to literally laughing out loud when I hit the "glooby glooby gloo"s at the end. Something that turned it from Psycho to Naked Gun...
