Subterranean Homesick Alien

The breath of the morning

I keep forgetting

The smell of the warm summer air.

I live in a town

Where you can't smell a thing

You watch your feet for cracks in the pavement.

High up above

Aliens hover

Making home movies for the folks back home

Of all these weird creatures

Who lock up their spirits

Drill holes in themselves

And live for their secrets.

They're all

Uptight

Uptight

Uptight

Uptight

Uptight

Uptight

I wish that they'd swoop down

In a country lane

Late at night when I'm driving.

And take me on board

Their beautiful ship

Show me the world as I'd love to see it.

I'd tell all my friends

But they'd never believe me

They'd think that I'd finally lost it completely

I'd show them the stars

And the meaning of life.

They'd shut me away.

But I'd be alright.

I'm alright.

I'm just

Uptight

Uptight

Uptight

Uptight

Uptight

Uptight

Uptight

Uptight


My Thoughts -I think this song is interesting for, if nothing else, its subject matter. How many other musicians have songs about being abducted by extraterrestrials?
it's gonna be a glorious day.
