I Used To Hope The Aliens Would Please Pick Me

Now If I Saw A Spaceship

I Would U-turn And Floor It

Ta-ta ET

Maybe My Sense Of Adventure Receded From Focus

To Dwindle And Then Disappear

Or Maybe It's Just Getting Hard Not To Notice

There's Plenty To Do Around Here



I Used To Run Fast Just To Dive To The Ground

In Our Cheyenne And Sugarfoot Game

Now It's True I Get Stiff Just From Sitting Around

But I Do Like To Sit Just The Same

And I Don't Mind The Old, I Don't Mind The Gray

It's Not Like I Was Miss Clairol Anyway

And It's Okay With Me That I Will Not Be

The First To Find Out If The Swing Works Okay



'cause I Don't Have To Remember Laissez-Faire Taught Us

I Don't Even Own Any Good Shoes

And If You're Having Apples With Mayonnaise And Walnuts

I Can Just Say "no Thank You"
