Lyrics That's Why - Patrick Godfrey

That's why you turn when you're walking out the other way,
It's something that you learn, though you don't need it every day.
Walk down the street just like you planned
To be right there when the aliens land.
You can grin and watch the little grey men
Shaving in the window with their ball point pens.
Scratching lines from space on their face,
Veiny blue maps for the human race,
That's why you turn.
That's why you turn.
And here's why you sing though your heart is broken,
Put a tiny wing on each word that's spoken.
Fling them up into the sky,
Maybe they'll wait for you until the day you die.
Honour, trust, love and joy,
They're flying around like little boys,
Cherry bombs every Spring, chasing cats and everything,
That's why you sing!
And here's why you dance in a cross eyed trance,
Shake and wiggle like there's bees in your pants.
10,000 workers, 200 drones, Hawaiian queen is buzzing on the throne.
Saints alive I love that royal jelly,
But when you pass the hive you better crawl on your belly.
If them and their buddies see you pass you'll
Get a million red dots on your pretty little...
Bottom, that's where they got him.
It's what their momma taught em, and now you gotta swat em.
They can make you cry, but buzz buzz then they're gonna die.
Uh uh uh, uh.
That's why you dance dance dance dance dance.
Fried potato, terminator, sweet tomato, accelerator.
Zeeba neighbor, now she's in labour,
Sooner or later you're gonna have to debate her.
A moment later, Tom will date her,
A twist of fate, the neighbour ate her,
On a plate, brought by a waiter, in a coat made out of a goat.
Well, I tell myself, I'm no elf,
But why's my home on this dusty shelf?
No one hears, no one sees,
I'm through with trying to please just me only,
I'm so lonely, so's my song, what went wrong?
There's so many things I'm trying to learn, and that is why I turn.
That;s why you turn when you're walking out the other way,
It's something that you learn, though you don't need it every day.
Walk down the street just like you planned
To be right there when the aliens land.
Give them a helping hand, or is it sooner than you planned?
Find a place to stand, isn't it grand?
Everyday a new demand,
And they're not yet banned.
Be right there when the aliens land.
