lyrics
Lyrics & Music by Shem Booth-Spain
I fell in love with an alien, she blew my mind and she took me to the stars,
she showed me about what was to come, she had green skin, she was the girl from mars,
and as I stumbled through the streets she appeared to me in a beam of light.
Now im just ordinary guy, but what they put in the films you’d be surprised there right,
And as I laid her down by the sodium lights, ya know, she shined so bright.
she said.. “baby you gotta grow, you gotta grow, so lets go! o la la la lah.... and then she flew away.
I fell in love with an alien, she read my mind and really made my day.
she showed me a holograph on her phone so i took her down the alleyway.
And as i fumbled with her space bra i could have sworn I heard the CIA
Now im just a human guy I might be inferior,. but I rock all night.
Chorus
And as I laid her down by the Neon lights, her eyes, they shined so bright.
I said.. “baby, our love could grow, our love could grow, I gotta know,... And then we flew away...
I fell in love with an alien, she changed my life in the space of a day.
I can remember the fun we had as the chip in my head dissolves my memory away.
I used to be a normal guy but now I look at the stars and hope and pray.
That as I laid her down by the sodium lights, ya know, she shined so bright.
she said.. “baby, you gotta know, you gotta know, Ive gotta go,
I fell in love with an alien, she blew my mind and she took me to the star,
she showed me about what was to come, she had green skin, she was the girl from mars,
and as I stumbled through the streets she appeared to me in a beam of light.
Now im just ordinary guy, but what they put in the films you’d be surprised there right,
And as I laid her down by the sodium lights, ya know, she shined so bright.
she said, baby you gotta grow, you gotta grow, Ive gotta go and...
And the love they take from you I will fill you up, with my light,
cos the hate you keep within will crush your life like broken glass,
for the love I gave to you, I will fill you up with my light
and the hate you keep within will wash away just close your eyes.
