Alex Chilton - The Replacements

If he was from Venus would he feed us with a spoon

If he was from Mars then that'd be cool

Standing right on campus would he stamp us in a file

Hangin' down in Memphis all the while

And children by the million sing for Alex Chilton

When he comes 'round

They sing "I'm in love

What's that song

Yeah I'm in love with that song"

So we will R**e and pillage in a village of his choice

Invisible man who can sing in a visible voice

Feeling like a hundred bucks exchanging good lucks face to face

Checkin' his stash by the trash at St Mark's place

And children by the million sing for Alex Chilton

When he comes 'round and 'round

They sing "I'm in love

What's that song

Oh I'm in love with that song

I never travel far

Without a little big star

Runnin' 'round the house Mickey Mouse and tarot cards

Falling asleep with a flop pop video on

And if he was from Venus would he meet us on the moon

If he died in Memphis then that'd be cool babe

And children by the million wait for Alex Chilton

And come around 'round

They sing "I'm in love what's that song

I'm in love with that song

I'm in love what's that song

Yeah I'm in love with that song

Oh

Come on
