Lyrics

Strange Things Happen

[Verse 1]

She believes in God and karma too

Paranormal powers, you know some people do

Got Scorpio rising, uh huh

Tell you what's in your stars

She was down in Rio, turned the heads of state

Got 'em into makin' this planet a better place

On Copacabana, uh huh

Boy, does she radiate, better go meditate

[Chorus]

Every time I touch my baby, strange things happen

(Strange things happen)

Every time I touch my baby, strange things happen to me

(Strange things happen)

Oh, oh oh

(Strange things happen)

Every time I touch my baby, strange things happen to me

[Verse 2]

Met a psychic reader with a crystal ball

Had a vision, said we could have it all

I caught her gazin', uh huh

At our destiny, cosmically

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

Every time I touch my baby, strange things happen

Oh, whoa oh oh (Strange things happen)

Every time I touch my baby, strange things happen to me

(Strange things happen)

Oh oh oh

(Strange things happen)

Every time I touch my baby, strange things happen to me

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]

Strange things, strange things, strange things, strange things

Strange things, strange things, strange things, strange things

Strange things, strange things, strange things, strange things

Strange things, strange things, strange things, strange things
