Don’t Talk to Strangers Songtext
von Jonathan Coulton

When you were just a young girl still in school
How come you never learned the golden rule?
Don′t talk to strange men, don't be a fool
I′m hearing stories, I don't think that that's cool

Why don′t you (tell me someone is loving you?)
′Cause you're my girl (some say it′s no longer true)
They say you're dating (some slick continental dude)
I′m begging you please

(Don't talk to strangers) baby, don′t you talk
(Don't talk to strangers) you know he'll only use you up
(Don′t talk, don′t talk) don't talk
Don′t talk to strangers

So tell me, how's life in the big city?
They say the competition′s tough, baby, that's a pity
When every guy′s an actor, every girl is pretty
I don't like what's getting back to me


So who′s this (Don Juan I′ve been hearing of?)
Love hurts when only one's in love
Or did you fall at (first sight or did you need a shove?)
I′m begging you please

(Don't talk to strangers) baby, don′t you talk
(Don't talk to strangers) you know he′ll only use you up
(Don't talk, don't talk) don′t talk
Don′t talk to strangers

What's he saying, baby?
I asked you not to talk to him
I′m begging you please

(Don't talk to strangers) baby, don′t you talk
(Don't talk to strangers) you know he′ll only use you up
(Don't talk, don't talk) don′t talk
Don′t talk to strangers

(Don't talk, don′t talk) don't talk
Don′t talk to strangers
