Night on the Town

Alien Encounter

By Cindy CalderPublished 3 years ago • Updated 3 years ago • 1 min read

Hello my little green alien friend

This isn’t where the universe ends

But welcome to the good ole’ USA

I think you will enjoy your stay.

*

Though it was a surprise to see you'd arrived

I wouldn’t want you to be deprived

I’m ready to take you all around

Help you enjoy a night on the town.

*

First stop will be Flying Pete’s

For a white bun stacked with meat

You'll like all the food, it's really delicious

Think you'll find it all to be very propitious.

*

Next we’ll head over to Scooping Fran’s

For a drink made of chocolate or butter pecan

Double scooped, creamy ice cream shakes

I'm sure you'll enjoy whatever they make.

*

Our last stop will be Bawdy Bub’s

Where you can experience a real disco club

We'll party and enjoy a drink, maybe two

For you, it will all be something quite new.

*

We will drink and dance the night away

The tab will be huge, but I won’t make you pay

There will be lots of sweet women to meet

Just consider it all to be my treat.

*

I realize you may not want to leave

After such a great time spent out with me

Still, I’ve got such a tiny house for a guest

And I’m hoping you don’t leave it a mess.

*

Maybe tomorrow you can head out

Go back to your planet – or even go south

Where you’ll meet some new friendly folks

And show them aliens aren't really a hoax.

*

It’s been a great time but have to say bye

I promise I won’t break down and cry

Still I'll miss you, it’s sad but it's true

'Cuz you've made the news showing up out of the blue.
