I Want an Alien For Christmas
Fountains of Wayne
(. Collingwood, . Schlesinger)
Verse 1:
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 kind of special
That I want most of all
Chorus:
I want an alien for Christmas
Bring me an alien this year
I want a little green guy, about three feet high
With seventeen eyes, who knows how to fly
I want an alien for Christmas this year
Verse 2:
(same chords from verse 1)
He can live in the bathtub
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
You can hang around the house all day
And watch the twilight zone
Chorus
Interlude:
Last Chorus:
I want an alien for Christmas
Bring me an alien this year
I want a little green guy, about three feet high
With seventeen eyes, who knows how to fly
I want an alien for Christmas this year
I want an alien for Christmas this year
