Meet an Alien

If I did meet an alien I wanna meet an alien And if I met an alien I'd gift it all my favorite friends I'd take it out to ball games If I understood ball games I'd take it out for dancing We'd have a ball dancing We'd write a story about Fate = me and it, it and me I'd learn more about its planet As we run holding each other's appendages Back to its ship It tells me more about how women who get pregnant here Go to the garden and they wait For rain to seep into their skin, into the ground Then they have babies when they want It says, what's a man? I say you're showing me the very best things It makes me want to write a song To tell my people there is more yet to come So When I meet an alien I'll bring it to a garden It says I'm not an alien Just something that is hopeful I'll confess I don't see you But in my mind I feel you So if you seek a war on all my humankind I'll show you at our weakest And when we kiss it's more sparks than contact But that's no reason to hold back We shoot my tears out of a gun They take down nothing I couldn't bear the wounds inflicted Please don't leave me on this earth Not everything is what it looks like Sometimes your beauty lies in ambiguity But some things you know If I did meet an alien I wanna meet an alien And if I met an alien I'd gift it all my earthling friends
