Sign in Stranger

Steely Dan

Have you heard about the boom on Mizar Five 
People got to shout to stay alive 
They don't even have policeman one 
Doesn't matter where you been or what you've done

Do you have a dark spot on your past 
Leave it to my man he'll fix it fast 
Pepe has a scar from ear to ear 
He will make your mug shots disappear

You zombie 
Be born again my friend 
Won't you sign in stranger

Do you like to take a yo-yo for a ride 
Zombie I can see you're qualified 
Walk around collecting Turkish union dues 
They will call you sir and shine your shoes

Or maybe you would like to see the show 
You'll enjoy the Cafe D'Escargot 
Folks are in a line around the block 
Just to see her do the can-can-Jacques

You zombie 
Be born again my friend 
Won't you sign in stranger

Love or leave her, yellow fever 
Sure, it's all in the game 
And who are you 
Just another scurvy brother

You zombie 
Be born again my friend 
Won't you sign in stranger
