Well she crashed into my backyard
In a saucer from outer space
And when she took off her space helmet
She had the most beautiful face
She said "Take me to your leader"
I said "Why don't you come inside?"
When she said she came in peace
I knew I wanted her to be mine
Well she said she'd been to earth before
But the government covered it up
And her ancestors built Stonehenge
And the Pyramids and other stuff
She was on her way to Venus
But her spaceship it broke down
And I'm so glad she landed
Right here in my town
Well she fixed up her spacecraft
And it was time for her to move on
I told her I would miss her
A whole lot when she's gone
She said "Baby, when you think of me,
Just look into the stars
And I'll be back to visit you
On my way back from Mars"

Mopey You

Daisies were at your door
I left them there the week before
You didn't respond to my letter
Whatever you have, it's not getting better
Mopey you, mopey you
Why are you so down and out?
What are you so sad about?
I saw you walking by my home
A place I thought you'd never go
The date we had was awfully fine
And I know I'm first in your line
But mopey you, mopey you
How do I keep you on your rails
It's like playing heads or tails
I get cranky seeing you
And now I'm mopey too
Mopey me, mopey you
