Alex Chilton

Lyrics

If he was from Venus, would he feed us with a spoon?
 If he was from Mars, then that'd be cool
 Standing right on campus, would he stamp us in a file?
 Hangin' down in Memphis all the while
 And children by the million sing for Alex Chilton when he comes 'round
 They sing, I'm in love, what's that song?
 Yeah, I'm in love with that song
 Cerebral rape and pillage in a village of his choice
 Invisible man who can sing in a visible voice
 Feeling like a hundred bucks, exchanging good lucks face to face
 Check-checkin' his stash by the trash at St. Mark's Place
 And children by the million sing for Alex Chilton when he comes 'round
 They sing, I'm in love, what's that song?
 Well, I'm in love with that song
 I never travel far
 Without a little big star, ooh
 ♪
 Runnin' 'round the house, Mickey Louse and tarot cards
 Falling asleep with a flop pop video on
 And if he was from Venus, would he meet us on the moon?
 If he died in Memphis, then that'd be cool, babe
 And children by the million wait for Alex Chilton to come around
 They sing, I'm in love, what's that song?
 I'm in love with that song
 I'm in love, what's that song?
 Yeah, I'm in love with that song
 Oh, come on
