This is what I have so far (Im not sure if its corrects, though):



Intro:
We..will..will..will..will..be..be..be

Verse:
We met in fancy dress thats how it was to me
But i never was prepared to cope with all you idiosyncracies
And in the cold Light of the day things dont always look the same
I wonder where youre living
???
Always look that way..

Chorus:
It was here in the outer limits
it was all such a long long time ago
I was so happy, happy in the outer limits
I just never wanted to go

Verse:
???
???
???
Oh yes i know, all i know, is that something wasnt right (correct??)

-chorus-

Bridge/ ending:
???
???
???
???

Well, I listen to this a lot, and though I couldn't get everything, I got more of it.
Too bad there isn't a higher quality version to listen to, that would make this a lot easier XD
Anyway, here's what I got:

Intro:
(Real?) x9

Verse:
We met in fancy dress, that's how it was to be
But I never was prepared to cope with all your idiosyncracies
And in the cold light of the day, things don't always look the same
I wondered where ??? you ??? always look that way

Chorus:
It was here in the outer limits
It was oh, such a long, long time ago
I was so happy, happy in the outer limits
I just never wanted to go, oh!

Verse:
What she collected in glass jars, I was ???
And how she spent all of her evenings, and the rest of us ran tight(?)
I screamed "Heavens!", I screamed "???", made strange noises in the night
Ooh, I guess I knew, all along, something wasn't right

~Chorus~

Bridge/Ending:
Press her to change her her ways
(I should?)n't even try
???
I'm just an ordinary guy
But then you caught on, they questioned me, and (well/if?) I had to testify
???
I'm just a regular guy, yeah, yeah!

[Screaming & Yelling, mostly unintelligble]
Please, don't ???
No! I didn't know what she was!
???

wow thank you soo much!!!!

I've had a go at transcribing the lyrics of all three songs from this album. Here's what I have so far -- I will come back and update this if I get any further.

Bela Lugosi's Birthday:

I'm up at six ??? and then
Sliding through another day
Looking for another place to stay

In the ???
Slipping in and moving fast
That's my way

All the people
In all of their houses
Asleep tonight

They can't see me
And they can't hear me
Close their eyes

Outer Limits:

(We ?) x repeat

We met in fancy dress, that's how it was to be
But I never was prepared to cope with all your idiosyncracies
And in the cold light of the day, things don't always look the same
I wonder, were you really ill, or did you always look that way?

It was here in the outer limits
It was oh, such a long, long time ago
I was so happy, happy in the outer limits
I just never wanted to go

What she collected in glass jars, that was (all of her and not mine ?)
Because she (spent all of her evenings ?), ??? the rest of us ???
Her strange habits, her strange hobbies made strange noises in the night,
Oh, I guess I knew all along something wasn't right

(chorus)

I asked her to change her ways, but she didn't even try
I used to always tell her, "look, look, I'm just a, an ordinary guy"
But then they caught her, they questioned me, and I had to testify
But I used to always tell, "I'm just an average guy", no, no

Oh no
Please don't take me away
No
I didn't know what she was
I (???) she was
I only loved her

Shalle We Dance:

This place stinks
??? stifling
I can hardly breathe in here
I can hardly hear myself think
??? can't even hear myself think
Over this damn noise

This place is cheap
Can't you see ??? (awful ?)
Can you believe that ???
I wouldn't want to be seen dead in here
I said, I wouldn't want to be seen dead in here
But until that day

Shall we dance
Shall we trip the light fantastic
Shall we dance
Darling, everybody's here
Darling, everyone is having
Such a good time
Such a good time

It's hot in here
??? hotter than hell
The ventilation is out to lunch
The situation is out of hand
The perspiration runs down the walls
And I think I'm going to faint

Shall we dance
Shall we trip the light fantastic
Shall we dance
Darling, everyone is here
Darling, everyone is having
Such a good time (repeat)

Thanks to everyone who posted previously -- I think you're right about the chorus; I don't think I would have figured that out myself.

Edit: I incorporated some of the helpful suggestions from YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHXCzC2wGlo
