Better than the following by The Byrds (Mr. Spaceman)... and of course not as good as Billy Preston's Outa Space whice is the definitive song for space and all that nothingness.

Thought it was Colin Hay while listening from across the room, washing dishes.

A silly song? Maybe you better listen to the song again! A spoof but not a joke!

I believe this is the same group that did Smoke Two Joints, covered by Sublime. I'm digging this!

What a fun song! {#Roflol} Reminds me a bit of Squirrel Nut Zippers, with a little Yello chucked in for good measure...


Waiting for the aliens, hanging out in Roswell
I sit outside and stare at the sky
And wonder when they're coming
Waiting for the aliens, and according to statistics
A hundred guys might get a ride
Tonight it could be my turn

Beam me up, I want to be abducted tonight
Beam me up, I'm not afraid to fly that high
Beam me up, I want to be abducted tonight
And I was wondering before you take me home again

Could I fly your ship, I wanna fly your ship
Fly your ship, I wanna fly your ship

One time around the sun, one time around the moon
One time around the Earth, stars, Venus and Mars
Baby I'll be home soon

Waiting for the aliens, I've seen all the movies
I'm so prepared to go up there
I know they're gonna choose me
Waiting for the aliens, packing my possessions
When I get my place in outer space
You can say you knew me

Beam me up, I want to be abducted tonight
Beam me up, I'm not afraid to fly that high
Beam me up, I want to be abducted tonight
And I was wondering before you take me home again

Could I fly your ship, I wanna fly your ship
Fly your ship, I wanna fly your ship

One time around the sun, one time around the moon
One time around the Earth, stars, Venus and Mars
Baby I'll be home soon

I bet they'll have a lot of questions & maybe some suggestions
I bet they're gonna ask me about man's insanity

"You've got a real nice planet here, But you better watch your atmosphere
And you better clean your waters up, or have none for your cup"

Beam me up

First time I've heard this, or even heard of the band.  I like it.  A lot.

This got accepted, but Nilson's "Spaceman" was rejected from the LRC?

Strange are the ways of taste.

The Toyes? Weren't they a Motown girl group from the mid-sixties that did "Lover's Concerto?" I know that's obscure but some will get it! LOL!
That was the Toys, without the 'e'

That's correct.I only search for chords because the aliens communicate through a secret chord based code only me and these guys know.

Well, at least he stays on a constant theme, as dumb as it may be.

"Beam me up, I wanna be abducted tonight"? Better watch out for that anal probe... I've heard things about these "Grays"...

See, _THIS_ is why I love radioparadise. I've never heard of these guys, never WOULD have heard of them on ClearChannel stations. It does sound like the lead guitarist is a great fan of Santana :)
