Alien Nation

You took a tumble down the rabbit hole
and woke up in the strangest of places
You recognized everybody but you
Could not recall their faces
The air there was spiked with something
It got you having palpitation
And now you can't remember the way home
The way back from Alien Nation

And you might think that you're happy there,
You might think you belong
You might think that I am delirious
But maybe you would be wrong

You're living in Alien Nation
Trapped in your neurotic vacation
you look around but you don't know anyone at all,
Can't read the writing on the wall

You began to wonder if you had been
Placed in witness protection
So you tried to stay under the radar
always avoiding detection
But time went by and now you fear
That you're lost in the twilight zone
'Cause you look around at the the place where you live
But it hardly ever feels like home

And you might think that you're happy there,
You might think you belong
You might think that I am delirious
But maybe you would be wrong

You're living in Alien Nation
Trapped in your neurotic vacation
you look around but you don't know anyone at all,
Can't read the writing on the wall

One day I thought I heard you calling out to me
Just a disembodied voice on a radio frequency

And you might think that you're happy there,
You might think you belong
You might think that you want to be a millionaire
But I think you'd be wrong

You're living in Alien Nation
Trapped in your neurotic vacation
you look around but you don't know anyone at all,
Can't read the writing on the wall
(You're) hangin' with the little green men - extraterrestrian
An accidental immigration, and now you're livin' in
Alien nation - hangin' with the little green men - extraterrestrian
An accidental immigration, semi-psychotic situation
Heard you call me, radio frequency
Heard you call me, radio frequency
