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
Children by the million sing for Alex Chilton when he comes 'round
They sing "I'm in love
What's that song?
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
Checkin' his stash by the trash at St. Mark's place
Children by the million sing for Alex Chilton when he comes 'round
They sing "I'm in love
What's that song?
I'm in love
With that song."
I never travel far
Without a little Big Star
x4
Runnin' 'round the house, Mickey Mouse and the Tarot cards
Falling asleep with a flop pop video on
If he was from Venus, would he meet us on the moon?
If he died in Memphis, then that'd be cool, babe
Children by the million wait for Alex Chilton to come around, 'round
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!
