(I Married a) Monster from Outer Space

Lyrics

The milky way she walks around
 All feet firmly off the ground
 Two worlds collide, two worlds collide
 Here comes the future bride
 Gimme a lift to the lunar base
 I wanna marry a monster from outer space
 I fell in love with an alien being
 Whose skin was jelly - whose teeth were green
 She had the big bug eyes and the death-ray glare
 Feet like water wings - purple hair
 I was over the moon - I asked her back to my place
 Then I married the monster - from outer space
 The days were numbered - the nights were spent
 In a rent free furnished oxygen tent
 When a cyborg chef served up moon beams
 Done super rapid on a laser beam
 I needed nutrition to keep up the pace
 When I married the monster from outer space
 We walked out - tentacle in hand
 You could sense that the earthlings would not understand
 They'd go. nudge nudge ...when we got off the bus
 Saying it's extra-terrestial - not like us
 And it's bad enough with another race
 But fuck me... a monster ...from outer space
 In a cybernetic fit of rage
 She pissed off to another age
 She lives in 1999
 With her new boyfriend - a blob of slime
 Each time I see her translucent face
 I remember the monster from outer space
