They Saw the Fat One Coming Songtext
von Strawberry Alarm Clock

They said they saw him in the morning
But they just couldn't understand why he was crying
He came upon them without warning
And told them of the things he left behind him dying

Why did he come to our fair city?
Why did he only say the things that only make us worry?
He said it killed but showed no pity
It came upon him like the devil's raging fury


Why did it spare him, why's he here?
Who is this stranger that walks among us?
And why is he here?
Why did he live?
Maybe a deals been made between them oo-oh

We gathered at the church on Sunday
And turned the house of God into a place of violence
With guns and clubs we met on Monday
And swore before the day was done there would be silence
