(I Married a) Monster from Outer Space (John Peel Session 3 October 1978)

I fell in love with an alien being

Whose skin was jelly, whose teeth were green

She had the big bug eyes and the death ray glare

Feet like waterwings, purple hair

I was over the moon, I asked her back to my place

Then I married the monster from outer space

The days were numbered, the nights were spent

In a rent free furnished oxygen tent

Where a cyborg chef served up moonbeams

Done super rapid on a laser beam

I needed nutrition to keep up the pace

When I married the monster from outer space

We walked out, tentacle in hand

You could sense that the earthlings would not understand

They go 'nudge, nudge' when we got on the bus

They said 'It's extraterrestrial, not like us'

And it's bad enough with another race

Fuck the monster from outer space

In a cybernetic fit of rage

She pissed off to another age

She lives in 1999 with her new boyfriend

A blob of slime

Each time I see her translucent face

I remember the monster from outer space
