[Verse 1]
Whoever brought me here will have to take me home
I don't belong
I could be wrong
Forgot completely now, why spill your sad around?
I don't belong
I could be wrong

[Chorus]
Strangers
How strange the feeling to be strangers
Who got it wrong?
Strangers
How strange the feeling to be strangers
Who strain for feeling
We're all strangers
How strange the feeling to be strangers
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

[Verse 2]
Battle lines drawn with people
Your conscious mind was left behind
Battle lines drawn with people
The war's begun, we'll all have guns
Dreaming of Babylon
I feel I don't belong
I could be wrong
Night time, so long

[Chorus]
Strangers
How strange the feeling to be strangers
Who strain for feeling
We're all strangers
How strange the feeling to be strangers
Time to move on

[Refrain]
(Welcome to the show!
Clap your hands, clap your hands!)
Suitcase, too late
I've got people who got people

[Outro]
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la

Though best known as a guitarist and keyboardist for The Strokes, Hammond has also been performing periodic solo work since his 2006 debut album Yours To Keep.

Still a member of The Strokes despite the controversy surrounding and following their 2013 album Comedown Machine, Hammond began to gain more traction upon releasing his 2013 AHJ – EP under Strokes frontman Julian Casablancas‘ Cult Records Label.

Though still an official part of his bandmate’s label, he released his 2015 album Momentary Masters through Vagrant Records.
