           I haven't seen any since I cleaned my room,
          but keep looking out for those flying purple people eaters.
   
Verse 1
   D (xx0232@1)  Well, I saw the thing comin' out of the sky
              A7 (x02020@1)                  D (xx0232@1)  It had one long horn and one big eye(OOOH!)
       
   I commenced to shakin' in the center ring
   GN.C. (320003@1)   It looks like a purple people-eater to me


Chorus
   D (xx0232@1)  It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flying purple people-eater
   A7 (x02020@1)  One-eyed, one-horned, flying purple people-eater
   D (xx0232@1)  One-eyed, one-horned, flying purple people-eater
   G (320003@1)        A7 (x02020@1)       D (xx0232@1)  Sure looks strange to me!
  

Verse 2
   When he came down to earth he hid in a tree
   I said, "Mr. Purple People-Eater, don't eat me"
   And I heard him say in a voice so gruff,
  "I wouldn't eat you 'cause you're so tough."

(Chorus)

Verse 3
   I said, "Mr. Purple People-Eater, what's your line?"
   He said, "Eating purple people and it sure is fine. 
   But that's not the reason I came to land,
   I wanna get a job in a rock 'n' roll band."

Chorus 2
  Well, this my soul rock 'n' roll flying purple people-eater
   Pigeon-toed, under-grown, flying purple people-eater
  (We wear short shorts) friendly little people-eater
   What a sight to see! OOOH!
   

   
Verse 4
   Then he swung from a tree, and he hit on the ground
   He started to rock, really rocking around
   It was a crazy ditty with a swinging tune
  "Sing a-bop bap-a-boop-a-lap-a-loom-bam-boom!"


Verse 5
    Well, he went on his way, and what do you know?
    I saw him last night on a T.V. show
    He was blowing it out, really knocking 'em dead,
    Playing rock 'n' roll music through the hole in his head

       Thanks for looking,
