Well I saw this thing coming out of the sky
It had a purple skin, one horn and one eye
He turned to me and I said: “oowee!”
It looks like a purple people eater to me

It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
A one-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
A one-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
Sure looks weird to me (One eye)

Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh

‘P-p-please, don’t eat me’, was all I could say
He said: ‘I’m not hungry, so don’t be afraid!
Eating’s not the reason why I came to land
I just wanna play in a rock and roll band’

It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
A one-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
A one-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
Sure looks weird to me (One eye)

REFREIN

Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh

Well, he went on his way, and what do ya know
We saw him last night on a TV show
He was blowing it out, really knocking ’em dead
Playing rock and roll music through the horn in his head

It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
A one-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
A one-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
Sure looks weird to me (One eye)

It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
A one-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
A one-eyed, rock and roll, flyin’ purple people eater
Sure looks good to me (One eye)

Hey, what’s that flying up there?
Is it a bird? (No)
Is it a plane? (No)
Is it a purple people eater? (Yeah!)
