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
