Mom, Am I From Outer Space? Lyrics

Am I supposed to like it here?

They keep saying that I belong

And I get reminded every time

Some human asks me where I'm from

Did I arrive in a rocket?

Did I land in a UFO?

Did I remember to lock it?

Is Earth where I wanted to go?

Was there a beam of light in your face?

Mom, am I from outer space?

All this time, they still insist

That I could be happy here

And it hurts them when I resist

They say I won't be happy anywhere… anywhere

Did I arrive in a rocket?

Did I land in a UFO?

Did I remember to lock it?

Is Earth where I wanted to go?

Was there a beam of light in your face?

Mom, am I from outer space?

I've been safe and I've been sound

Been well-fed, even been around

So it pains me to confess

That I question my humanness… my humanness

Did I arrive in a rocket?

Did I land in a UFO?

Did I remember to lock it?

Is Earth where I wanted to go?

Did I arrive in a rocket?

Did I land in a UFO?

Where the hell did I dock it?

Tell me, do you know?

Was there a beam of light in your face?

Mom, am I from outer space?
