Lyric Strange Ritual

A man sits in a field - contemplating his crops
In his mind he travels all over the world

I see hairstyles, strange rituals
Scenes of beauty, scenes that disgust me
I see, I see me
I felt awe, felt disgust
I felt bliss, I felt lust
It s - not unusual

Saw people in a remote village
Proudly wearing their - digital watches
Saw a young Indonesian girl
Possessed by the spirit of Mutant Ninja Turtles
Saw palatial estates, with crumbling decorations
And human furniture

I saw hairstyles, meanwhile
There s a strange ritual
Got a strange ritual, it s wearing me down

Saw a skyscraper made out of abandoned car parts
Saw a legislature of women
Courted by corporate lobbyists
Saw body parts made out of precious gems
And rare metals, saw a man on a barstool
Who hadn t moved - in 32 hours

He s lost in love
He s lost in love
All hope is gone

A French corporation that doesn t make anything
An ambulance driver - wakes up in a Dairy Queen
A town in which even the people who live there
Can t remember it s nameYeah, I see
Yeah, I see - I see what you mean
Yeah, I saw hairstyles
Meanwhile
There s a strange ritual
He s got a strange ritual

He keeps to himself
Mmm - got a strange ritual
He keeps to himself
"Excuse me, sir, excuse me, sir
You can t stand there
You can t stand there"
Excuse me, sir (excuse me, sir)
Excuse me, sir (excuse me, sir)
You can t stand there (you can t stand there)
You can t stand there (you can t stand there)

I saw things
Things out in the fields
I saw things
Things out in the fields
And I look at myself
What do I know?

(I saw things come into my room)

I saw things come into my room
It s not unusual
I saw hairstyles
Meanwhile
There s a strange ritual
Got a strange ritual
He keeps to himself
Yeah, we got a strange ritual
We keep to ourselves
He s lost in love
He s lost in love
All hope is gone
All hope is gone
All hands on deck
All hands on deck
He s lost in love
He s lost in love
We re lost in love
We re lost in love
All hope is gone
All hope is gone
We ve got a strange ritual
We keep to ourselves
We ve got a strange ritual
We keep to ourselves
Keep, keep, keep ...
We ve got a strange ritual
We keep to ourselves

We re lost in love
We re lost in love
We re lost in love
We re lost in love ...
