He's a perfect stranger Like a cross of himself and a fox He's a feeling arranger And a changer of the ways he talks He's the unforeseen danger The keeper of the key to the locks Know when you see him Nothing can free him Step aside, open wide It's the loner If you see him in the subway He'll be down at the end of the car Watching you move Until he knows he knows who you are When you get off at your station alone He'll know that you are Know when you see him Nothing can free him Step aside, open wide It's the loner There was a woman he knew About a year or so ago She had something that he needed And he pleaded with her not to go On the day that she left He died, but it did not show Know when you see him Nothing can free him Step aside, open wide It's the loner
