The Loner

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
