I am a alien
No matter how hard I try I don't fit in
Always all on my own, sad and lonely
All I want is for someone to play with me
Long ago I was a little girl
Yeah I was never ever able to fit in
My teachers at school
Would try to tell me what to do
But, yo I would never listen
'Cause I was high all the time
Stoned out of my little fucking mind
Misunderstood, lost and confused
Looking for a sign
All the popular kids at school
Were always super mean to me and made me cry
I never knew what I should do
So I just walked away and said fuck off and die
They said that I'm weird
That I'm ugly, and that I suck
I knew that one day all of those kids
Would grow up to be boring as fuck
I am a alien
No matter how hard I try I don't fit in
Always all on my own, sad and lonely
All I want is for someone to play with me
I am a alien
No matter how hard I try I don't fit in
Always all on my own, sad and lonely
All I want is for someone to play with me
I close my eyes and float into the night
I like to let my mind drift
Make a jump into a new dimension
Thank God I got that gift
Ever since I was a little kid
Always on that next shit
These whack copycat ball bags
Can suck my motherfucking dick
Sometimes it feels like coming from this planet
People are so sick and twisted
I don't wanna fit in anyway, I'd rather be a misfit
Fuck a normal life, that's lame, me I'm insane in the brain
They laugh at me because I'm different
I laugh at them because they're all the same
I am a alien
No matter how hard I try I don't fit in
Always all on my own, sad and lonely
All I want is for someone to play with me
I am a alien
No matter how hard I try I don't fit in
Always all on my own, sad and lonely
All I want is for someone to play with me
