"People are Strange" by The Doors (Performed by Charmed and Julien - entire post by Julien)

Smiling over at Charmed, I take her hand and we disappear backstage for a few minutes. When we emerge we are in full costume for our number. She is decked out in a black bustier, fishnets, and spiked heels. I am in a traditional tuxedo and we both sport top hats. The stage goes to black and a very tight pin spot shines down on her draped across the top of an organ seductively. I stand with my back to the audience and turn slowly as the music starts its insinuating low drone. As I start to sing, Charmed slithers off the organ and joins me, wrapping an arm around my chest as she peeks out from behind me.

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
Faces come out of the rain
When you're strange
No one remembers your name
When you're strange
When you're strange
When you're 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

Charmed wraps around me like a snake and we break into a brief tango type dance before I continue singing

When you're strange
Faces come out of the rain
When you're strange
No one remembers your name
When you're strange
When you're strange
When you're strange

When you're strange
Faces come out of the rain
When you're strange
No one remembers your name
When you're strange
When you're strange
When you're strange
