Out in the fields farmers grow bread
When called for the meals, they took for the shed
Then dark came to fall and silence was all
A beaty shone bright, surrounded by light
Come on now

I fell in love with an alien
I fell in love with her eyes
Fell in love with an alien
I'm telling you no disguise
I'm in love with an alien
I'm in love with her eyes
I'm in love with an alien
I'm telling you no disguise

She came looking out babe, for a Romeo
She ain't looking out babe, for a homey boy
I'm in love with an alien
I'm in love with her eyes
I'm in love with an alien
I'm telling you no disguise

The moon went to bed, the sun growing red
A scarecrow appeared, and chased her in fear
She sent me her love, her love to me
Then we will grow, a big family
Come on now

Fell in love with an alien
Fell in love with her eyes
Fell in love with an alien
I'm telling you no disguise
I'm in love with an alien
I'm in love with her eyes
I'm in love with an alien
I'm telling you no disguise

She came looking out babe, for a Romeo
She ain't looking out babe, for a homey boy

Fell in love with an alien
Fell in love with her eyes
Fell in love with an alien
I'm telling you no disguise

Fell in love with an alien
Fell in love with her eyes
Fell in love with an alien
I'm telling you no disguise

I'm in love with an alien
I'm in love with her eyes
I'm in love with an alien
I'm telling you no disguise

Fell in love with an alien
Fell in love with her eyes
Fell in love with an alien
I'm telling you no disguise

Fell in love with an alien
Fell in love with her eyes
Fell in love with an alien
I'm telling you no dis-, telling you no dis-guise
