I feel so different,
I\u2019m an alien scared you\u2019ll all notice me,
So I hide in the darkest of rooms,
Hoping nobody sees,
I can\u2019t trust anything living,
But also can\u2019t trust my own mind,
My home planet will send assistance,
It\u2019s only a matter of time,
I don\u2019t know how me being here,
Actually came to be,
But this crazy ass planet,
Was most certainly not meant for me,
If you know how to contact the mothership,
Then please send them an S.O.S.,
Let them beam me up,
Cos I need time to rest,
I won\u2019t tell them your plans,
I promise we won\u2019t invade,
I just need to escape Earth,
This planet like masquerade,
I look at stars and watch the x-files,
Hoping I recognise or remember,
Cos for the crown of the craziest and most doolally planet,
Earth is seriously a strong contender,
I do come in peace,
I just need to get back home,
Cos the more I stay down here,
I\u2019m catching more of this homo sapien syndrome,
I don\u2019t know if I have to take a trip,
All the way to Roswell,
But I will gladly do it,
If it means I escape this place of hell,
My anatomy is the virtually the same as yours,
But my mind certainly is not,
And I\u2019ve been down here so long,
That my home planet I have virtually forgot,
I\u2019m not the older generation,
Nor am I some kind of millennial,
I\u2019m just an alien trying to get back home,
A lost but not yet found extra-terrestrial,
I\u2019ve tried riding a push bike,
And flying towards the moon,
But I got sectioned and drug tested,
All in one single afternoon,
I have no time to waste anymore,
I need to get back to my planet quick,
Cos the more I say I\u2019m an alien,
The more people think I\u2019m a lunatic,
I don\u2019t want to be tested on,
Or have my asshole examined,
Or locked up in a cage,
Threatened with starvation and famine,
So please ding a ling a ling,
On your magical banjo,
And whilst I\u2019m packing my backs,
Please keep an eye out for a U.F.O.,
Cos as soon as they realise,
And try to make contact,
I\u2019m 100% out of here,
This alien is going back.
