| The stars above us twinkle
|
| Like eyes or flashing teeth
|
| Whose eyes are these that watch us
|
| So many light-years beneath
|
| It seemed so very cold up there
|
| So far from Island Earth
|
| But we’ve wanted just to join them
|
| From the moment of our birth
|
| There’s aliens in our midst
|
| Where they come from, no one knows
|
| There’s aliens in our midst
|
| They look like me and you
|
| There’s aliens in our midst
|
| This place seems strange to them
|
| There’s aliens in our midst
|
| Someday their dreams will come true
|
| This friend of mine was five years old
|
| He dressed up in his sister’s clothes
|
| And his daddy got so mad
|
| He whipped him with a rubber hose
|
| But he grew up O-K
|
| And made his way to junior high
|
| And as things would have it fell in love
|
| And gave his ring to another guy
|
| The rich man and the poor man
|
| The beggar and the thief
|
| They all want money
|
| But can it buy relief
|
| The workers and the dreamers
|
| They made their bed to lie in
|
| If you pass beneath their windows
|
| Then you might hear them crying |
