Just what the hell has happened here
Smelling smoke, must be burning up the atmosphere
Am I lost, have I found the right place to be?
Better run, better clear, better be outta my wayI'm comin' down and I'm hot
Yeah, I'm hot like the sun
Man I'm not of this Earth
Yeah, I'm somethin' to seeI slowly touch down on the planet
I'm the alien, could be some trouble up ahead
Just got in today, landed in the U.S.A.
Hitched a ride on a rocket from the Milky WayJust 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 aliveNow 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 everythingLike 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 51Just got in today, landed in the U.S.A.
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 noThey'll never take me alive
They'll never take me alive
I don't have a phone card to call homeThey 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 freeJust got in today, landed in the U.S.A.
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 stayJust got in today
(Just got in today)
Welcome to the U.S.A.
(Welcome to the U.S.A.)Think I'm gonna shoot back home
Like a cosmic ray
They'll never take me alive
They'll never take me alive
