Alien Landings
Welcome to the US of A
It’s such a pleasure for me
To welcome you to the land of the free!
I have no fear of abduction
So, let’s dissuade any mental corruption
Your craft collided with my docks
No trouble, you’re cold? Have some socks.
Come, It seems you’ve traveled far
I’m sorry if all the smoke obscures the stars
Here, let me show you America’s treasures,
The Constitution, the Walmart, a gun range for your leisure
ohh, there are also deserts and forests
those are fading fast. Instead, here’s the florist.
You want to see what other beauty we offer?
Well, that does depend on the size of your coffers.
Your skin, it’s strange but recognizable
Let’s keep it low; some mingling isn’t advisable
Despite all the hoopla around your arrival
I can’t say I fear any sort of reprisal
They say you don’t come in peace
Ohh don’t worry, that’s just the police
They all keep calling you alien
But all I see is another homo sapien
