Lyrics Midnight Star - "Weird Al" Yankovic

I was waiting in the express lane
With my twelve items or less
At the checkout counter at the local grocery store
I was only passin' by

But a paper caught my eye
And I learned a few things
I never knew before
It said

Your pet may be an extra-terrestrial
It said The ghost of Elvis is living in my den
You can learn to cope with stress
And you can beat the IRS

And the Incredible Frog Boy is on the loose again
Ohhh Midnight Star
It's in the weekly Midnight Star
Aliens from outer space are sleeping in my car
Midnight Star, I wanna know, I wanna know!

Eat jelly doughnuts and lose twenty pounds a day
Hear the story of the man born without a head
And top psychics all agree

That the telephone company

Will have a brand new service that lets you talk to the dead

Ohhh Midnight Star

You can believe it if you read it in the weekly Midnight Star

They're keeping Hitler's brain alive inside a jar
Midnight Star, I wanna know, I wanna know!

(Tell me tell me tell me how to make my bust line grow)
Midnight Star I wanna know
Ohhh Midnight Star
Well don't ya know that I read it, I read it in the weekly Midnight Star?

The UFOs have landed, and we'll tell you where they are
Midnight Star I wanna know I wanna know
Ohhh Midnight Star
Well, you can read all about it in the weekly Midnight Star

You can use your ESP to learn to play guitar
I wanna know I wanna know
(Ahhh Midnight Star)
I wanna know I wanna know

(Ahhh Midnight Star)
I wanna know I wanna know
(Ahhh Midnight Star)
I wanna know I wanna know

(Ahhh Midnight Star)
Enquiring minds like mine wanna know
(You can read it you can read it you can read it in the Midnight Star)
I wanna know I wanna know

(You can read it you can read it you can read it in the Midnight Star)
I wanna know I wanna know
(You can read it you can read it you can read it in the Midnight Star)
I wanna know I wanna know

(You can read it you can read it you can read it in the Midnight Star)
I wanna know I wanna know
(You can read it you can read it you can read it in the Midnight Star)
I wanna know I wanna know

(You can read it you can read it you can read it in the Midnight Star)
I wanna know I wanna know
(You can read it you can read it you can read it in the Midnight Star)
