Purple People Eater

Well, I saw the thing comin' out of the sky

It had the one long horn, one big eye

I commenced to shakin' and I said "ooh-eee"

It looks like a purple eater to me

It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater

(One-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater)

A one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' 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, don't eat me

I heard him say in a voice so gruff

"I wouldn't eat you 'cause you're so tough"

It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater

One-eyed, one-horned flyin' purple people eater

One-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater

Sure looks strange to me (one horn?)

I said Mr. Purple People Eater, what's your line?

He said "eatin' purple people and it sure is fine

But that's not the reason that I came to land

I want to get a job in a rock and roll band"

Well bless my soul, rock and roll, flyin' purple people eater

Pigeon-toed, under-growed, flyin' purple people eater

(We wear short shorts) friendly little people eater

What a sight to see (oh!)

And then he swung from the tree and he lit on the ground

And he started to rock, really rockin' around

It was a crazy ditty with a swingin' tune

(Sing a boop-boop, a-boopa lopa lum bam boom)

Well, bless my soul, rock and roll, flyin' purple people eater

Pigeon-toed, under growed, flyin' purple people eater

"I like short shorts!" flyin' purple people eater

What a sight to see (purple people?)

Well, he went on his way, and then what do ya know?

I saw him last night on a TV show

He was blowing it out, really knockin' em dead

Playin' rock and roll music through the horn in his head
