Well I saw the thing comin' out of the sky
It had the one long horn one big eye
I commenced to shakin'
And I said ooh-eee
It looks like a purple people eater to me
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 strange to me One eye
Well he came down to earth
And he lit in a tree
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
It was a one-eyed one-horned
Flyin' purple people eater
One-eyed one-horned flyin' purple people eater
One-eyed one-horned
Flyin' purple people eater
Sure looks strange to me One horn
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 came to land
I wanna get a job
In a rock and roll band
Well bless my soul rock and roll
Flyin' purple people eater
Pigeon-toed undergrowed
Flyin' purple people eater
We wear short shorts
Friendly little purple people eater
What a sight to see OW
And then he swung from the tree
And he lit on the ground
He started to rock really rockin' around
It was a crazy ditty with a swingin' tune
Sing a boop boop aboopa lopa lum bam boom
Well bless my soul rock and roll
Flyin' purple people eater
Pigeon-toed undergrowed
Flyin' purple people eater
I like short shorts
Flyin' little people eater
What a sight to see Purple People
And then he went on his way
And then what do ya know
I saw him last night on a TV show
He was blowing it out
An'really knockin' em dead
Playin' rock and roll music
Through the horn in his head
