Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm an alligator
I'm a mama papa comin' for you
I'm a space invader
I'll be a rock 'n' rollin' bitch for you
Keep your mouth shut
You're squawking like a pink monkey bird
And I'm busting up my brains for the words
[Chorus]
Keep your 'lectric eye on me, babe
Put your ray gun to my head
Press your space face close to mine, love
Freak out in a moonage daydream, oh, yeah
[Verse 2]
Don't fake it, baby
Lay the real thing on me
The church of man love
Is such a holy place to be
Make me, baby
Make me know you really care
Make me jump into the air
[Chorus]
Keep your 'lectric eye on me, babe
Put your ray gun to my head
Press your space face close to mine, love
Freak out in a moonage daydream, oh, yeah
[Chorus]
Keep your 'lectric eye on me, babe
Put your ray gun to my head
Press your space face close to mine, love
Freak out in a moonage daydream, oh
[Chorus]
Keep your 'lectric eye on me, babe
Put your ray gun to my head
Press your space face close to mine, love
Freak out in a moonage daydream, oh, yeah
[Outro]
Freak out
Far out
In out
