Well I saw the thing

comin' out of the sky

It had the one long horn, one big eye

I commenced to shakin'

and I said "ooh eee"

It looks like a purple eater to me

It was a one eyed, one horned

flyin' purple people eater

(One eyed, one horned

flyin' purple people eater)

A one eyed, one horned

flyin' purple people eater

Sure looks strange to me

(One eye?)

Well he came down to earth

and he lit in a tree

I said Mr. Purple People

Eater, don't eat me

I heard him say in a voice so gruff

I wouldn't eat you cuz you're so tough

It was a one eyed, one horned,

flyin' purple people eater

One eyed, one horned

flyin' purple people eater

One eyed, one horned,

flyin' purple people eater

Sure looks strange to me

(One horn?)

I said Mr. Purple People

Eater, what's your line

He said it's eatin' purple

people and it sure is fine

But that's not the reason

that I came to land

I wanna get a job in

a rock and roll band

Well bless my soul, rock and

roll, flyin' purple people eater

Pigeon toed, undergrowed,

flyin' purple people eater

(We wear short shorts)

Flyin' purple people eater

Sure looks strange to me

And then he swung from the

tree and he lit on the ground

He started to rock

really rockin' around

It was a crazy ditty

with a swingin' tune

Sing a boop boop aboopa

lopa lum bam boom

Well bless my soul, rock and

roll, flyin' purple people eater

Pigeon toed, undergrowed

flyin' purple people eater

I like short shorts

Flyin' little people eater

What a sight to see

(Purple People?)

And then he went on his way,

and then what do ya know

I saw him last night on a TV show

He was blowing it out,

a'really knockin' em dead

Playin' rock and roll music

through the horn in his head
