on the ferris wheel
 looking out on Coney island 
 under more stars than
 there are prostitutes in Thailand 
 our hair in the air
 our lips blue from cotton candy 
 when we kiss it feels
 like a flying saucer landing 

 and i can't sleep
 cause you got strange powers
 you’re in my dreams
 strange powers

 in Las Vegas where
 the electric bills are staggering
 the decor hog wild
 and the entertainment saccharine
 what a golden age 
 what a time of right and reason
 the consumers king
 and unhappiness is treason

 and i can't sleep
 cause you got strange powers
 you’re in my dreams
 strange powers

 the sun pours down like money
 the [bad word] down like mercury
 the stars fall down like money
 and [bad word] down to me

 and i can't sleep
 cause you got strange powers
 you’re in my dreams
 strange powers

 and i can’t sleep
 cause you got strange powers
 you’re in my dreams
 strange powers
