I'm glad you taught your kids my name They scream it as they run away They say it's getting worse out there Let me welcome you to the climate of fear I am the stranger Your paranoia created me A picture perfect scary freak A violent drugged out two-bit thief Just like they show them on T.V. You lock your car door when I walk by You won't even look me in the eye I walk alone down the street at night Triggering every sensor-security light I am the stranger You lock me out of your world But you wont leave me alone Concerned neighbors call the cops on me For going into my own home Look at you, you're scared of life Just waiting to be killed, saying "If I don't call the cops on you my neighbor will" But your neighbor Is the stranger
