The Lyrics
If I were an alien
From another planet
Would I fit in better here?
Would I still know Janet?
If a singer were my trade
And I got real rich
Why should kids be in my bed?
Maybe I'm just real sick
Trade my wealth for poverty
prison cell tomorrow?
I gave the world my tastelessness
And I will reap the sorrow
If I thought I was a king
Guess I'd wear an arm band
And I'd give up everything
Just to hold a boy's hand
If I were a thriller
In the moonlight shining
Would you see me as a wolf
In the forest, pining?
If I were an alien
From another planet
Would I fit in better here
Would I still know Janet?
Would I fit in better here
Would I still know Janet?
From another planet
Would I fit in better here?
Would I still know Janet?
If a singer were my trade
And I got real rich
Why should kids be in my bed?
Maybe I'm just real sick
Trade my wealth for poverty
prison cell tomorrow?
I gave the world my tastelessness
And I will reap the sorrow
If I thought I was a king
Guess I'd wear an arm band
And I'd give up everything
Just to hold a boy's hand
If I were a thriller
In the moonlight shining
Would you see me as a wolf
In the forest, pining?
If I were an alien
From another planet
Would I fit in better here
Would I still know Janet?
Would I fit in better here
Would I still know Janet?

Wish he was on another planet! Good job, Royce! 555 gropes.
Out of this world...good job
"If"? 5s
Nicely put...555
an earth shattering experience.. 5-5-5 good job, Royce
The saddest thing in the issue is that the Alien trashes the name of the world's most famous beer guru (http://www.beerhunter.com).
Hey...maybe under all that plastic surgery and make-up...there's a LIZARD.
Royce: I thought this was actually going to be a science-fiction song. You fooled me. (But then, so did Michael Jackson.) This may be the best Gloved One parody yet. Johnny B: As Ben would say, "Rats, you stole my joke." Susanna: When did he ever trash George Wendt? (Norm from "Cheers") Johnny D: No, Jim Morrison was the Lizard King. But Jackson may be slimy.
He'll be ailin' in prison...especially around to backside. This is terrific. 555
thanks for the comments
Now there's an idea, put MJ into the next planetary probe and send him to another planet. 5s.
Guy: I can't think of a better way to get a civilization from another planet ticked off at us. It must be why the Vulcans stood in the way of the Warp 5 Project. (I know, I know, "Get a life.")
