The Irish Rovers - Purple People Eater lyrics

Well, I saw the thing A comin' out of the sky It had a one long horn And a one big eye I commenced to shakin' And I said "oohwee It looks like a Purple People Eater to me" 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 looked strange to me Well, he came down to earth And he lit in a tree I said a, "Mister 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 looked strange to me I said a, "Mister 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 wanna get a job In a rock 'n roll band Well, bless my soul, rock 'n roll Flyin' Purple People Eater Pigeon-toed, under-growed Flyin' Purple People Eater One-eyed, one-horned Flyin' Purple People Eater What a sight to see And then he swung from the tree And he lit on the ground And he started to rock, A-really rockin' around It was a crazy ditty With a swingin' tune, I'm singin' Bop bapa loop a lap A loom bam boom 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 What a sight to see Well, he went on his way And then what-a you know I saw him last night On a TV show He was blowin' it out, Really knockin' 'em dead A Playin' rock 'n roll music Through the horn on his head (Saxaphone plays) 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 looked strange to me
