lyrics

Their bodies are a similar shape,
Faces look almost the same,
They talk in near identical ways...but they're different you see.
It seems as though they're shifting their form,
So different from dusk than at at dawn,
So confident and so damned assured...but they're very nice to me.

Crash landed on a planet made of gold,
Been stranded with no chance of getting home.
I'm expanding from a homosapien, I've been branded
And becoming the alien

The only party I want to be,
Is the search party they sent out for me.
They're calling this the land of the free...but you're not allowed to leave.

Crash landing on a planet made of gold,
Been stranded with not chance of getting home.
I'm expanding from a homosapien, been branded and becoming.
So leave me in a jar upon a shelf,
Don't feed me, I'm afraid it hurts my health.
I'm feeling like some strange experiment, skin peeling
And becoming the alien.
