[Verse 1] You found me in the back room Under a cracked glass frame With a jar of moonbeam pebbles And a matchbox full of rain I keep a taxidermy thunder A stamped blue velvet key A postcard from a dry river That no one else can see [Pre-Chorus] And I donβt do common I donβt do same I wear my oddness Like a runaway name [Chorus] Rare and unusual Thatβs my crown Rare and unusual Turn me around If you want the usual Keep moving on Iβm the strange little signal That keeps going strong [Verse 2] Thereβs a goldfish in a teacup On a shelf by the sink He circles like a question mark When the world starts to blink I got a map to nowhere Folded in my coat And a tiny brass umbrella For the years we almost broke [Pre-Chorus] And I donβt do common I donβt do tame I keep the wild thing Calling my name [Chorus] Rare and unusual Thatβs my crown Rare and unusual Turn me around If you want the usual Keep moving on Iβm the strange little signal That keeps going strong [Bridge] Come closer, look closely Thereβs a spark in the dust A lot of pretty people Still wonβt know what to trust But you laugh when I show you The broken, the bright And the weird little treasure That fits in your hand just right [Final Chorus] Rare and unusual Thatβs my crown Rare and unusual Turn me around If you want the usual Keep moving on Iβm the strange little signal That keeps going strong Rare and unusual Sing it out loud Rare and unusual I wear the crowd
