Am I An Alien Here Lyrics

I had a dream you left me for someone who was mean to me
So I cried and left for Mexico
Well I tried to learn to surf by riding a machine that I kept beside the window
It was not a good way to be
It was not a good way to be

I had a dream I was in school, I was learning from the best how to overcome my blues
They said, here's a spider in a bowl, here's Poseidon's white bull
Now, just pretend you have the right to choose

And I say, am I an alien here?
Here in the cave of my skull
Crawling around in the dark
Dark to the ones I love Put fodder on the fire, get water from the well
It's a simple kind of life
And happiness is easy, it's a story that you tell, it's a teardrop in your eye

And I had a dream that he died, and then he died, then he died, and then mama died too
And somewhere in the world an evil genius was on the rise
And then Bowie died, and everybody said
Hell, what are we gonna do

Am I an alien here?
Here in the cave of my skull
Crawling around in the dark
Dark to the ones I love

Am I an alien here?
Here in my room
