Don't Talk To Strangers Lyrics

Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti

I recorded a song from memory I heard a long time ago
I don't know who wrote it, I don't know who sang it
I don't know where it came from, I don't know why
But I just know that I've heard it, somewhere, some time, and I just
needed... to put it back out there, you know
so this song's for you, man... the one who wrote this song, and you're a stranger, and I'm a stranger
and even though we shouldn't be talking, I mean who said we shouldn't be talking? I mean, you said... we shouldn't be talkin

the girl said lie, this world, it seems
so I painted you with the picture of my dreams
and you love me don't you? (yes yes)
you risk nothing don't you? (no no)
so just say the words

please... don't... talk

she said don't talk to strangers
please... don't... talk
she said don't talk to strangers
please... don't... talk
don't talk to strangers
please... don't... talk
she said don't talk to strangers

you treat me like someone you don't know
but you know love then tell me so

and you love me don't you? (no no)
you risk nothing don't you? (yes yes)
so just say the words
you can't, I'm broke

please... don't... talk
she said don't talk to strangers
please... don't... talk
she said don't talk to strangers
please... don't... talk
don't talk to strangers
please... don't... talk
she said don't talk to strangers
