(This is Gordan G Goodvoice with an on the spot report
I'm standing at this moment about fifteen feet from where
It actually landed
I have an intelligent looking man an eye-witness here
Who saw the whole thing
Sir would you tell us what you saw)
Well I saw the thing comin' out of the sky
It had the one long horn and one big eye
I commenced to shakin' and I said ooh-eee
It looked like a purple people eater to me
(What was it really Sir)
It was a one-eyed one-horned flyin' purple people eater
(One-eyed one-horned flyin' purple people eater)
A one-eyed one-horned flyin' purple people eater
Sure looks stange to me
(Then what happened)
Well he came down to earth and lit in a tree
And I said Mr Purple People Eater don't eat me
I heard him say in a voice so gruff
(I wouldn't eat you cuz you're so tough)
(Sir would you explain how you made that amazing little sound)
Yeah man I teased you I just modulated my voice
(Amazing)
I said Mr Purple People Eater what's your line
He said it's eatin' purple people and it sure is fine
But that's not the reason that I come to land
(I wanna get a job in the Monkey's Band)
(Bless my soul rock and roll flying purple people eater)
Pidgeon-toed undergrowed flyin' purple people eater
(One-eyed one-horned flyin purple people eater)
Sure looked strange to me
Then he swung from the tree and he lit on the ground
And started to rock really rockin' around
A crazy ditty with a swingin' tune
(Sing aboop boop aboopa lopa lum bam boom)
(What happened to him did he fly away)
No man you see that little purple guy standin' right over there
(You mean the one with the horn in his head)
That's right
(Amazing)
Hey come here little purple shortie
Tune up that horn in your head and play one for us OK
(Who me)
Amazing
Yeah boy play it purp they call him Purp for short amazing
Hey little short purple shortie
Would you like a little short purple drink or something
Amazing
