  • She came from Planet Claire
    I knew she came from there
    She drove a Plymouth Satellite
    A-faster than the speed of light

    Planet Claire has pink air
    All the trees are red
    No one ever dies there
    No one has a head

    Some say she's from Mars
    Or one of the seven stars that shine after three-thirty in the morning
    Well, she isn't!

    She came from Planet Claire
    She came from Planet Claire

    She came from Planet Claire Writer/s: CINDY WILSON, FRED SCHNEIDER, HENRY MANCINI, KATE PIERSON, KEITH STRICKLAND, RICKY WILSON
