The Alien

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Just what the hell has happened here? Smelling smoke, burning up the atmosphere Am I lost, have I found the right place to be? Better run, better clear, better outta my way I'm comin' down and I'm hot Yeah, I'm hot like the sun And I'm not of this Earth Man, I'm somethin' to see [Pre-Chorus] I slowly touch down on the planet, I'm the alien Could be some trouble up ahead [Chorus] Just got in, today Landed in the USA Hitched a ride on a rocket from the Milky Way Just got in, today Don't know if I wanna stay Think I'm gonna shoot back home on a cosmic ray Oh yeah, oh yeah They'll never take me alive They'll never take me alive [Verse 2] Now they're making me a cover boy Standing in the aisles in the supermarket tabloids Check it out, checking in with inquiring minds Need to know everything Like, how did I get here? Where will I go? "Is he red, is he white or a six-foot negro, or an Afrodite?" [Pre-Chorus] The CIA has got a file on everything I've done Take me to my friends in Hangar 51 [Chorus] Just got in today Landed in the USA Hitched a ride on a rocket from the Milky Way Just got into town, wanna take a look around Just arrived, but I don't think I want to stay Oh no, oh no They'll never take me alive They'll never take me alive [Bridge] I don't have a phone card to call home [Solo] [Verse 3] They want to take me as a specimen Dry me out, grind me into vitamins Oh my God, maybe I am the cure [Pre-Chorus] My future here, it doesn't look too bright, to me I know, today, I gotta leave And be free Be free [Chorus] Just got in today Landed in the USA Hitched a ride on a rocket from the Milky Way Just got into town, wanna take a look around I just arrived, but don't think I want to stay Just got in today (Just got in today) Welcome to the USA (Welcome to the USA) Think I wanna shoot back home, like a cosmic ray They'll never take me alive They'll never take me alive
