I met a lady alien the other night
And everyone was wrong about what it'd be like
I took her around to all the best spots
Showed her downtown and the coffee shops
We walked in the woods
We pet my neighbor's dog
And then we had him for lunch

She was tall and supple and green
Her skin had an emerald and toady sheen
I had to loan her my sister's clothes
It was eighty-five degrees, but she nearly froze
We talked all morning and
We met my best friend
And then we had him for lunch

It was late at night when she first came
Her ship was gleaming in the midnight rain
I thought I'd be kidnapped killed or maimed
Poked and probed with no end to the strain
But everyone was wrong about what it'd be like
An emerald lady alien
There's nothing like

Well, I met a lady alien the other night
And everyone was wrong about what it'd be like
I took her around to all the best spots
Showed her downtown and the coffee shops
We walked in the woods
We met my best friend
And then we had him for lunch
And then we had him for lunch
And then we had him for lunch
And then we had him for lunch
