Red Zebra - the ultimate stranger lyrics

rate me

The streets all run emptyMen stay in their houses

There’s fear in their eyes

As they watch the sky

The churchbells are ringing

The women are praying

Their hands start to shake

As they mutter the words

The ultimate stranger arrived yesterday

He says there’s danger coming our way

The pace has been broken

And panic rides high

No time now for laughter

‘Cause the end is nearby

New soldiers are marching

But there are no battles

No enemy is

Waiting for them

The ultimate stranger arrived yesterday

He says there’s danger coming our way

Could there be danger coming our way

Why should there be danger coming our way

But nothing has happened

The streets all run crowded

The churchbells are silent

As the soldiers disappear

So life gets back normal

In spite of the warnings

By prophets and priests

For the end of the world

No ultimate stranger must tell us today

That there’s danger coming our way
