Moonage Daydream

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'm an alligator

I'm a mama-papa coming 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

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

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

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

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

Keep your 'lectric eye on me, babe

(Keep your 'lectric eye on me, babe)

('Lectric eye on me babe)

Put your ray gun to my head

(Put your ray gun to my head)

(Ray gun to my head)

Press your space face close to mine, love

(Press your space face close to mine, love)

(Press your space face close to mine, love)

Freak out in a moonage daydream, oh, yeah

(Freak out in a moonage daydream, oh, yeah)

(Freak out in a moonage daydream)

(Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah)

Freak out (freak out, freak out, freak out, freak out)

Far out (far out, far out, far out, far out)

In out (in out, in out, in out, in out)
