There are stories that tend to go untold

For none wants it to be known that there's weird, here, in what's supposedly a wonderfully mundane world 

Possibly this is why we persecute, make mute, all the things odd 

We don't want to believe that there are things we don't understand, can't comprehend, in the land created by God 

Maybe that's why we go in hand in with incident

We're oblivious fools that choose not to embrace and try to understand 

The odd creatures of Earth, both above and below its shell 

Is that why once upon ago we persecuted and condemned creatures of the unknown - to us - as "things of Hell"?

Freedom of speech does the first amendment of the Bill of Rights guarantee 

So why is it that strange and stranger have to go in untold silence in favor of more mundane shows?

Don't be a fool, ignorance is not bliss

Open your eyes people, and witness! 

There are strange things all around 

Take two steps back and you'll be able to see 

What goes in this wonderful world isn't mundane 

But truly, truly strange 

If an elephant can carry a city on its back 

A horse can run atop a giant sea turtle's shell 

And a little girl climbs a latter that tilts across a blue wide sea without fear in her eyes 

Well, it's a strange world after all!
