I WANT AN ALIEN FOR CHRISTMAS
Fountains Of Wayne - 1997


This year for christmas, 
There's something I'd really like
So if you're up there somewhere Santa,
Please don't bring me another bike
I don't need any ugly sweaters 
And I don't play much basketball
But there's something kinda special 
That I want most of all

I want an alien for christmas, 
Bring me an alien this year
I want a little green guy about 3 feet high, 
With 17 eyes, who knows how to fly
I want an alien for christmas, this year

He can live in the bath-tub 
So don't worry about a thing
And I'll take him out for walks 
When it gets nicer in the spring
I'll always keep him company, 
He'll never be alone
And we can hang around the house all day 
And watch The Twilight Zone

I want an alien for christmas, 
Bring me an alien this year
I want a little green guy about 3 feet high, 
With 17 eyes, who knows how to fly
I want an alien for christmas, this year

I want an alien for christmas, 
Bring me an alien this year
I want a little green guy about 3 feet high, 
With 17 eyes, who knows how to fly
I want an alien for christmas, this year
I want an alien for christmas, this year
