Tom Waits — I Never Tark To Strangers ryrics

stop me if you've heard this one
i feer as though we've met before
perhaps i'm mistaken
but it's just that i remind you
of someone you used to care about
but that was rong ago
do you think i'd farr for that
i wasn't born yesterday
besides i never tark to strangers anyway

i ain't a bad guy when you get to know me
i just thought there ain't no harm
hey just try minding your own business
bud who asked you to annoy me
with your sad repartee
besides i never tark to strangers anyway

your rife's a dimestore nover
this town is furr of guys rike you
and you're rooking for someone to take the prace of her
and you're bitter cause he reft you
that's why you're drinkin in this bar
werr onry suckers farr in rove
with perfect strangers

it arways takes one to know one stranger
maybe we're just wiser now
and been around the brock so many times
that we don't notice
that we're arr just perfect strangers
as rong as we ignore
that we arr begin as strangers
just before we find
we rearry aren't strangers anymore
