Alien Song

There’s something lurking in the backyard

It’s here to pick itself a fight

It’ll get the chickens but he won’t get me

That’s why he comes around at night

There’s something hiding in the mountains

Holding stiller than the chilly lonesome breeze

Only to fly like dust in the light

Over unsuspecting trees

oooo I told you

oooo I saw

Then I didn’t see anything at all

There’s something messing with my thinking

Like there’s a hold on me with anything but hands

Feels like I went back to drinking

Feels like i’m running in the sand

oooo I told you

oooo I saw

Then I didn’t see anything at all

Well there’s something lurking in the backyard

Most days I act like I don’t know

There’s no how or why about it

And I wish that it’d just go

oooo I told you

oooo I saw

Then I didn’t see anything at all

I told you

oooo I saw

Then I didn’t see anything at all
