People Are Strange
The Doors Lyrics
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
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
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
All right, yeah!
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

Yes they are. How about what Morrison says in the song, "When the Music's Over"? Here ya go...
What have they done to the earth?
What have they done to our fair sister?
Ravaged and plundered and ripped her and bit her
Stuck her with knives in the side of the dawn
And tied her with fences and dragged her down
I hear a very gentle sound
With your ear down to the ground

Lyrics
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
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

The Doors - 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
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
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

There are no words to express how I feel while listening to the Doors music. It is a mystical, outerworldly experience and Jim Morrison inspires me. There was never a band like them before, and never after... It reunites us people because we like the same thing, and it's really special compared to a lot of other fandoms. The Doors are forever.
Christine Salter
I agree with your praise and admiration of the Doors. Outerworldly is a great way to describe the Doors experience. Love People are Strange. They really capture this in the song. And it makes you feel like you are not alone in this world of strange and insane people. May the Doors always live on. Keep the Doors "open".
SuperSeshMaster
Agree with everything except the bit about “fandoms” lmao we’re just fans. Fandoms ruin everything.
Space Bezos
Exactly what the Doors are. I always wanted an interpretation on what the Doors are and the feeling one has with them. Thanks!
ROBERT NIX Alternative Rock/Pop Artist
