one day as i was a havin' myself a party
you know a flyin' saucer landed right by my side
you know a big green man jumped out and boy you know he robbed me
you know he beat me for my bottle before i got high
i hittim' up knowing that i was dead
'cause he had that big ray-gun pointed at my head
but curiosity will get the best of the best
you know he smelled that bottle and the liquor did the rest
turned that bottle up and started drinking
long time before he pulled it away
his eyes got crossed and man his knees started wobblin'
he took four steps forward and this is what he said
i could see this cat was a just about to party
'cause he had that great big green in his eye
he said come on hurry on down
let's forget our troubles
just jump in my space hot-rod and take a little ride
so now i'm not afraid of no kind of space man
'cause i keep my defenses by my side
and if you ever see me any place or any time
you can bet i'm a holding my bottle by my side
and i'm gonna sing hey la
