  • No need to be here
    No card to clock in
    And I can swear somebody's watchin'
    Where I go and where I've been.
    Brother I can see moses
    And all the things he did for you
    Oh brother I've been hearing voices
    That I'm probably not supposed to.
    How will I walk steady
    If the ground should come alive
    And tell me how will I be ready
    For the world another time

    [Chorus]
    Whoa alien!
    You'll be just fine,
    You've always been beautiful
    To me
    Whoa alien!
    Pay us no mind,
    We haven't the light to hold
    To see

    Am I another slave now
    To the screamin in my head
    Or is it a little strange now,
    How the moment's gone and fled
    Oh brother I gotta tell ya,
    That something here is wrong,
    Oh brother I gotta tell ya
    This place ain't a-what I thought

    [Chorus]

    I know I ain't gonna build forever
    (No I ain't gonna build forever)
    And I know you feel the same
    (And I know you feel the same)
    You'll see it when your older
    (You'll see it when your older)
    No love is not a game anymore
    So thank god we're together.

    Whoa alien.
    You'll be just fine, fine
    Yea-ah!

    [Chorus]

    Whoa alien! Whoa! Yea! Writer/s: CLAYTON STROOPE, SCOTT LEE JASON
