lyrics
Walking down the road one day
Saw a bright light coming my way
All of a sudden, I was floating up high
All the way up into the night sky
I was weightless; flying free
Kinda made me feel like I had to pee
Wondering what was gonna happen to me
And the crazy things I was about to see
I was poked and prodded and looked all over
Then I heard something from over my shoulder
A whirring sound, and the snap of a glove
And the little guy showed me some alien love
A shiny rod in a three-fingered hand
Then all of a sudden, I could no longer stand
It hit the spot and found a winner
So we went off and had some dinner
I had a good time, but I was in a trance
'Cause I realized I misplaced my pants
Had a nice night with my new friend
I guess it all worked out in the end
I was poked and prodded and looked all over
Then I heard something from over my shoulder
A whirring sound, and the snap of a glove
And the little guy showed me some alien love
