Subterranean Homesick Alien Songtext
von Tom Ricci

The breath of the morning and I keep forgetting
The smell of the warm summer air
I live in a town where you can′t smell a thing
You watch your feet for cracks in the pavement

Up above the aliens hover
Making home movies for the folks back home
Of all these weird creatures who lock up their spirits
Drill holes in themselves and live for their secrets

We're all uptight, uptight
Uptight
Uptight
Uptight...


I wish that they′d sweep down in a country lane
Late at night when I'm driving
Take me on board their beautiful ship
Show me the world as I'd like to see it
I′d tell all my friends but they′d never believe me
They'd say that I finally lost it completely
I′d show them the stars and the meaning of life
They'd shut me away, but I′d be alright

Oh... I'm alright
Yeah... I′m alright
Oh... I'm alright...
I'm just... uptight
Uptight
Just
Uptight
Uptight
Uptight, I′m uptight
Uptight, I′m uptight
Uptight
I'm uptight
Uptight
