You're a strange girl, I don't understand your fantasy

Your father's a collector and his things are a delight
He likes cameras and binoculars and everything in sight,
He collects them in a wagon in the middle of the night
Every holiday's a nightmare and it's giving me the chills
Everybody ends up fighting, I remember it still
The only thing that they agree on is it's me they want to kill

You're a strange girl, you come from a strange family
You're a strange girl, I don't understand your vanity

I think we ought to break up, I could really use the rest
Everything I like to say is something you detest
But every time I try to leave you say you love me best
I was looking for some mystery, I thought you'd be the girl
I really must admit you were like nothing in this world
I finally got the oyster but I never found the pearl

You're a strange girl, you come from a strange family
You're a strange girl, I don't understand your vanity
You're a strange girl, you come from a strange family
You're a strange girl, I think you're headed for calamity
Am       G         Em7 F7
