In your mind you have capacities you know  
To telepath messages through the vast unknown  
Please close your eyes and concentrate  
With every thought you think  
Upon the recitation we’re about to sing

Calling occupants of interplanetary craft  
Calling occupants of interplanetary, most extraordinary craft

Slowly the thought  
“There is no one to replace”  
Came into view  
And he began to cry  
Now only boys  
That love only boys  
The perfect picture  
Of a boy/girl age

I’m praying to the aliens  
I’m praying to the aliens

Grey overcoat  
And he could be anyone  
A random poll check  
“Do you ever think of women?”  
They broke him down  
Into a torn old queen  
Living somewhere  
Between dead and dying

I’m praying to the aliens  
I’m praying to the aliens

There are no more  
Do you begin to see?  
The corner of my eye  
Could give me away  
Isn’t it strange  
How times change?  
I can’t imagine  
Living any other way

I’m praying to the aliens  
I’m praying to the aliens

Got out of bed, wasn’t feeling too good  
With my wallet and my passport, a new pair of shoes  
The sun is shining so I head for the park  
With a bottle of Tequila and a new pack of cigarettes

I got a cousin, and she got a friend  
Who thought that her aunt knew a man who could help  
At his apartment I knocked on the door  
He wouldn’t come out until he got paid  
Now, don’t tell anybody what I wanna do  
If they find out, you know that they’ll never let me through

'Cos it’s no fun being an illegal alien  
No, it’s no fun being an illegal alien

Down at the office had to fill out the forms  
A pink one, a red one, the colours you choose  
Up to the counter to see what they think  
They said, “It doesn’t count man, it ain’t written in ink!”  
I don’t trust anybody, least not around here

'Cos it’s no fun being an illegal alien, I tell ya  
It’s no fun being an illegal alien, no no no no no  
It’s no fun being an illegal alien, I mean it when I tell ya that  
It’s no fun being an illegal alien, an illegal alien, o.k.

Oh no, oh no  
Here we go now  
Oh no, oh no  
Here we go now

Got a crazy feeling I don’t understand  
Gotta get away from here  
Feelin’ like I should have kept my feet on the ground  
Waitin’ for the sun to appear

Mamma’s gonna worry  
I’ve been a bad, bad boy  
No use sayin’ sorry  
It’s something that I enjoy

'Cause you can’t see what my eyes see  
(I can see it, I can see it)  
And you can’t be inside of me  
Flying high again

Shoot 'em 'fore they run now.  
Do the jerk, baby  
Do the dirty now  
Hey

Put on your red dress  
And then you go downtown now  
I said, Buy yourself a shotgun now  
We’re going to break it down baby now  
We’re going to load it up baby now  
Oh can you shoot 'em 'fore they run now

I said, Shotgun!

Hey

Put on your high heel shoes  
I said we’re going down here listen to 'em play the blues  
We’re gonna dig potatoes  
We’re gonna pick tomatoes

I said, Shotgun!  
Shoot 'em 'fore they run now.  
Do the jerk, baby  
Do the dirty now  
Hey

I said it’s twine time  
I said it’s twine time  
I said it’s twine time

Hey Joe, I said where you goin’ with that gun in your hand?  
Alright. I’m goin down to shoot my old lady,

I’m gonna get me a shotgun and kill all the whities I see  
I’m gonna get me a shotgun and kill all the whities I see  
When I kill all the whities I see, then whitey he won’t bother me  
I’m gonna get me a shotgun and kill all the whities I see.  
Then I’ll get a white woman who’s wearing a navy blue sweater…

Walking with care as I climb  
Every step of the stairway  
Knowing that she’s thinking  
Only of me while her parents  
Are holding her their way

Why must I feel like  
I’ve tried to steal  
What she’s giving

Now is the time that  
We both take a stand  
And it’s time that we  
Learned about living

Put your mind at ease  
Go put your mind at ease  
Under the trees  
Out where it’s breezy

Nobody here but me and you  
We’ll do the things  
We meant to do  
Sit back, relax  
We’ll take it easy

Things that are good can be  
Misunderstood and mistaken  
Dying to know the direction to go  
And it’s time that  
Some action be taken

We cannot fight  
Cause we’re doing it right  
But you’re losing

Going for the ride  
Gotta let you decide  
On the exit  
You plan to be using

Put your mind at ease  
Go put your mind at ease  
Under the tree  
Out where it’s breezy

Nobody here but me and you  
We’ll do the things  
We meant to do  
Sit back, relax  
We’ll take it easy

Sit back, relax  
And take it easy  
Put your mind at ease  
Put your mind at ease…

Turn off your mind relax and float down stream  
It is not dying, it is not dying

Lay down all thoughts, surrender to the void,  
It is shining, it is shining.

Yet you may see the meaning of within  
It is being, it is being

Love is all and love is everyone  
It is knowing, it is knowing

And ignorance and hate mourn the dead  
It is believing, it is believing

But listen to the colour of your dreams  
It is not leaving, it is not leaving

So play the game “Existence” to the end  
Of the beginning, of the beginning

For your love  
I’d give you everything and more, and that’s for sure  
For your love  
I’d bring you diamond rings and things right to your door  
For your love  
To thrill you with delight  
I’ll give you diamonds bright  
There’ll be things that will excite  
To make you dream of me at night

Look at Molly now  
Here she come

Wearing her wig hat  
And shades to match  
Got her high heel shoes  
And an alligator hat

Wearing her pearls  
And her diamond ring  
Got bracelets on her  
Fingers now and everything

Devil with the blue dress  
Blue dress on, she’s the  
Devil with the blue dress on  
Lord, have mercy

Devil with the  
Blue dress, blue dress on  
Devil with the blue dress on

Down in the bayou where the alligators roam  
Live some people, you leave them alone  
Getting lost may be your last mistake  
Unfriendly strangers, unkindly they take  
Living off the fat of the land  
They hold their justice in the palm of their hand  
Lay down your gun and surrender quiet  
Or there’s gonna be a Cajun Riot

Danger in the swamp that waits for you  
There’s nothing left that you can do  
Better watch your back, for the vicious attack  
‘Cause they’ll be looking for you  
Playing with your life, for your life is too short  
Pain is too good for you  
Your last breath, is all you have left  
Take it before you’re doomed  
Cajun Hell (Cajun Hell)  
Cajun Hell (Cajun Hell)  
Cajun Hell (Cajun Hell)  
Cajun Hell…before you’re doomed

Here they stand, brothers them all  
All the sons, divided they’d fall  
Here await the birth of the son  
The seventh, the heavenly, the chosen one

Here the birth from an unbroken line  
Born the healer, the seventh, his time  
Unknowingly blessed and as his life unfolds  
Slowly unveiling the power he holds

Seventh son of a seventh son  
Seventh son of a seventh son  
Seventh son of a seventh son  
Seventh son of a seventh son

Then they watch the progress he makes  
The Good and the Evil - which path will he take?  
Both of them trying to manipulate  
The use of his powers before it’s too late

Seventh son of a seventh son  
Seventh son of a seventh son  
Seventh son of a seventh son  
Seventh son of a seventh son
