Beautiful Aliens

Jan 22, 2021

Here's an acoustic version of my song "Beautiful Aliens", with a little baritone sax on the side. I wrote these lyrics quite some years back, the chords and melody have been kicking around a long time before I got to this. Another song that I intend to make a better quality version of.

Beautiful Aliens, knocking my door
I’d like to let them in
But I don’t know what they’re knocking for

We could sit down together, fall asleep or play
I’d like to get friendly with the aliens one day

Take me home with you
I’m tired of my lonely room
Take me home with you
For some day I’ll open up to you

Pope Ignorant Gentle says it’s all wrong
I saw him this morning, he swapped his Rolls Royce
For a guitar song, he said:
“Danny, be careful. They’re stringing you along”
But down by the churchyard
The aliens are singing that same old song (that goes)

Take me home with you
I’m tired of my lonely room
Take me home with you
For some day I’ll open up to you
