Lyrics
[Intro] Is this thing on? I was just trying to calibrate my telescope when the sky started singing in 4/4 time. [Verse 1] It was laundry day, as I sat on the porch Just me, the dog by the light of my torch It came from nowhere, blasting a familiar song, when it stopped to hover I knew something was wrong! [Pre-Chorus] The ramp opened up with a hiss and a groan I thought 'well, I guess we're not alone' But they weren't looking for brains or for gold They had a stack of my CDs, or so I'm told. [Chorus 1] And they said: Hey! you skinny man with the wife-beater We demand you take us to your lead singer! Forget the invasion, forget the war, He's our favorite super-star! That's me, I replied in a daze, I had no idea I was an inter-galactic craze! I have more fans on your planet than mine! If you want to abduct me, that would be just fine! [Verse 2] The captain was green with a mean three-part harmony Said 'Your bridge in track seven is pure cosmic larceny' They bought all my merch with some inter-galactical coin And asked if there's any chance they could join? [Chorus 2] And they said: Hey! you skinny man with the wife-beater We demand you take us to your lead singer! Forget the invasion, forget the war, He's our favorite super-star! That's me, I replied in a daze, I had no idea I was an inter-galactic craze! I have more fans on your planet than mine! If you want to abduct me, that would be just fine! [Bridge] They did a solo that broke every law of physics I countered with a lick that was purely linguistics We jammed for an hour on the dark side of the moon Those boys could jam, we made a catchy tune. [Verse 3] So if you see a UFO hovering over the stage Don't call the Men in Black, they're just coming of age They aren't here for Earth, or to rule with a fist They just want to know if I've got a mailing list. [Final Chorus] And they said: Hey! you skinny man with the wife-beater We demand you take us to your lead singer! Forget the invasion, forget the war, He's our favorite super-star! That's me, I replied in a daze, I had no idea I was an inter-galactic craze! I have more fans on your planet than mine! If you want to abduct me, that would be just fine! [Outro] As their machine wobbled and blinked out of existence, I heard a faint tune, from their craft emanate. Time to hit warp speed, we can't be late! Take us to your lead singer! They demanded, It was the first thing they said when they landed. They didn't want to conquer or invade our lands, They just wanted to jam with their favorite bands!
