Well I saw the thing a comin' out of the sky
It had a one long horn and one big eye
I commits a shakin' and I said oo-ooee
It looks like a purple people eater to me
It was 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 looked strange to me (one eye)
Well it came down to earth and it lived 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 cause you're so tough)
It was 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 looked strange to me (one horn)
I said Mr Purple People Eater what's your line
He said 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'n roll band)
Well bless my soul a rock'n roll flyin' purple people eater
Pigeon-toed underfloor flyin' purple people eater
(We wear short shorts)
Friendly little purple people eater what a sight to see
And then he swing from the tree and he laid on the ground
Then he started to rock really rockin' around
He was crazy kiddie with a swingin' tune
(Sing a bop bop a boopa rim bam boom)
Well bless my soul a rock'n roll flyin' purple people eater...
Well he went on his way and then what do you know
I saw him last night on a TV show
He was blowin' out a really knockin' 'em dead
Playin' rock'n roll music through the horn in his head
