PEOPLE ARE STRANGE

People are strange when you're a stranger

Faces look ugly when you're alone

Women seem wicked when you're unwanted

Streets are uneven when you're down

When you're strange

No one remembers your name

When you're strange

People are strange when you're a stranger

Women seem wicked when you're unwanted

"People are Strange"

Lyrics by The Doors

When you're strange

When you're strange

Faces look ugly when you're alone

Streets are uneven when you're down

Faces come out of the rain

No one remembers your name

When you're strange

When you're strange

When you're strange

it's a pretty eerie album, especially when you listen to the song as you view it. Now, every time I listen to "People are Strange", I'm gonna remember this album. ;)

By the way, where was this?

I never would have associated these images with that song! But, it's so perfect. The images are wonderful. Love the framing of the feet and legs. puts me off center and then I realized it was from the old womans point of view?? At any rate,, James, this is a great tabblo.

Thanks, Butch! The truth was that this song was playing in my head when I took these pictures. :) No idea but the tabblo makes it more uhm clearer now.

Pam, thank you! Yes, I made the old woman the "persona" of the song here. I admire your sensitivity haha.. :)

Thank you, too Emma and David :)
