Strange Phenomena

Soon it will be the phase of the moon
When people tune in
Every girl knows about the punctual blues,
But who's to know the power behind our moves?

A day of coincidence with the radio,
And a word that won't go away
We know what they're all going to say
"G" arrives "Funny, had a feeling he was on his way!"

We raise our hats to the strange phenomena
Soul-birds of a feather flock together
We raise our hats to the hand a-moulding us
Sure 'nuff, 'e has the answer,
'e has the answer
'e has the answer
"Om mani padme,
Om mani padme,
Om mani padme hum"

You pick up a paper. You read a name
You go out. It turns up again and again
You bump into a friend you haven't seen for a long time,
Then into another you only thought about last night

You hear your sister calling for you,
But you don't know where from
You know there's something wrong,
But you don't want to believe in a premonition

We raise our hats to the strange phenomena
Soul-birds of a feather flock together
We raise our hats to the hand a-moulding us
Sure 'nuff, 'e has the answer,
'e has the answer
'e has the answer
"Om mani padme,
Om mani padme,
Om mani padme hum"

[om mani padme hum — this Buddhist mantra means
"Behold! The Jewel of the Lotus" ]
