Smelling smoke
Must be burning up the atmosphere
I lost, have I found the right place to be [bad word]  better clear, better be outta my way [bad word]  down and I'm hot
Yeah I'm hot like the sun, man I'm not of this earth
Yeah I'm somethin' to see

I slowly touch down on the planet
I'm the alien
Could be some trouble up ahead

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 want to stay
Think I'm gonna shoot back home
Like a cosmic ray, oh yeah, oh yeah
They'll never take me alive
They'll never take me alive

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 Afrodite

The CIA has got a file on everything I've done
Take me to my friends in Hanger 51

Just got in today, landed in the USA
Hitched a ride on a rocket from the Milky Way
Just got in to 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

I don't have a phone card to call home

They want to take me as a specimen
Dry me out, ground me into vitamins
Oh my God, maybe I am the cure

My future here it doesn't look too bright to me
I know today I gotta leave and be free, be free

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) [bad word] to the USA [bad word] to the USA)
Think I'm gonna shoot back home, like a cosmic ray
They'll never take me alive, they'll never take me alive
