The Alien Lyrics - Slash's Snakepit

Just what the hell has happened here 

Smelling smoke, must be burning up the atmosphere 

Am I lost, have I found the right place to be? 

Better run, better clear, better be outta my way 

I'm comin' down and I'm hot 

Yeah, I'm hot like the sun 

Man I'm not of this Earth 

Yeah, I'm somethin' to see 

I slowly touch down on the planet 

I'm the alien, could be some trouble up ahead 

Just got in today, landed in the U.S.A. 

Hitched a ride on a rocket from the Milky Way 

Just got in today, don't know if I want to stay 

Think I'm gonna shoot back home 

Like a cosmic ray, oh yeah, oh yeah 

They'll never take me alive 

They'll never take me alive 

Now they're making me a cover boy 

Standing in the aisles in the supermarket tabloids 

Check it out, checking in 

With inquiring minds need to know everything 

Like how did I get here? Where will I go? 

Is he red, is he white or a six foot Negro Afrodite? 

The CIA has got a file on everything I've done 

Take me to my friends in Hanger 51 

Just got in today, landed in the U.S.A. 

Hitched a ride on a rocket from the Milky Way 

Just got in to town, wanna take a look around 

Just arrived but I don't think I want to stay, oh no, oh no 

They'll never take me alive 

They'll never take me alive 

I don't have a phone card to call home 

They want to take me as a specimen 

Dry me out, ground me into vitamins 

Oh my God, maybe I am the cure 

My future here it doesn't look too bright to me 

I know today I gotta leave and be free, be free 

Just got in today, landed in the U.S.A. 

Hitched a ride on a rocket from the Milky Way 

Just got into town, wanna take a look around 

I just arrived but don't think I want to stay 

Just got in today 

(Just got in today) 

Welcome to the U.S.A. 

(Welcome to the U.S.A.) 

Think I'm gonna shoot back home 

Like a cosmic ray 

They'll never take me alive 

They'll never take me alive
