Bam! I¡¯ll explode, just like I were a bomb
|
flying over Vietnam high with my Uncle Tom.
|
Or sitting in a cabin having a sip of tea,
|
while a parrot sings a song in the minor key of C,
|
to inspire me, so we will see,
|
this neurotic harmony that develops sonically.
|
I¡¯ll be writing my plan out with a needle,
|
I¡¯ll make you twist and shout and think I was Beatle.
|
Like Lennon or Stalin in a car that won¡¯t start,
|
if your Volvo is stallin¡¯ then you need to learn the art
|
of mechanics. Don¡¯t panic, even though I¡¯m galvanic!
|
I¡¯m the only non-Hispanic on the Mexican Titanic.
|
My loops go round and round, just like a carousel,
|
coming out my BR-8, like I was William Tell.
|
If you haven¡¯t heard my name, I hope it rings a bell,
|
because I¡¯m the only guy
|
who knows what happened at Roswell.
|
|
CHORUS
|
Yes I¡¯m an alien, I come from outer space.
|
Yes I¡¯m an alien, I¡¯m going to rock this place.
|
|
Some people say I¡¯m not funny, I say okay,
|
I can¡¯t sell records here, I¡¯m huge in the UK.
|
British people tell me to keep rocking on,
|
you might have heard me down in London
|
rocking heads with this song.
|
I was sad when I found out about Santa Claus,
|
so I made like Tim Allen and broke some local laws.
|
I moved way up north and grew a beard,
|
now relatives and friends think I¡¯m kind of weird.
|
But did you think I was heretic when I danced in that church
|
like an unemployed crustacean chewing on a birch?
|
I¡¯m addicted to shark meat and books by Mark Twain
|
and eating Novocain shipped from the Ukraine.
|
My name¡¯s not Matthew, but thanks for asking!
|
I live in California, because I¡¯m not Alaskan.
|
But that¡¯s okay, what can I say?
|
My real home is actually light years away.
|
|
REPEAT CHORUS
|
|
You want poetry? Go read Robert Frost,
|
the simile in hip-hop is essentially lost,
|
like a tearful pallbearer carrying a body,
|
or a giant pink Care Bare acting snotty.
|
Where can it go? I just don¡¯t know,
|
but check out this funky alphabet flow:
|
it¡¯s like A-B-C-D-E-F-G-
|
H-I-J-K-L-M-N-O-P, and ICP on LSD
|
or ABC or MTV or the new PC
|
you got for free from
|
Circuit City in Albuquerque.
|
I be the VIP MC on this CD,
|
the name¡¯s MC Lars Horris, as you can see.
|
So where do I start, and where do I begin?
|
Yo, it¡¯s tough to be a funky fresh alien.
|
|
REPEAT CHORUS
