Here a man smashes out a window
And leaps out to his death
And I just gotta wonder
What was the last word on his breath
These strange ways
These strange ways
These strange ways
Was what he said
These strange ways
These strange ways
These strange ways
My oh my he lost the thread
What do we know
And what do we say
How will it look in days to come
Who will write it down
Who will bear witness
Who will survive and who will succumb
Here a life goes all haywire
A cancer grows like demon seed
He sticks in his thumb and pulls out a plum
Gets out ahead of the stampede
Once again he is out on the road
That old Highway 46
Over here the bodies are turning over
Over there the River Styx
