Patty Griffin - Alex Chilton

If he was from Venus Would he feed us with a spoon?If he was from Mars,Wouldn't that be cool?Standing right on campus Would he stamp us in a file?Hangin' down in Memphis all the while Children by the million Sing for Alex Chilton When he comes 'round They sing "I'm in love What's that song?I'm in love with that song"Cerebral rape and pillage In a village of his choice Invisible man who can sing In a visible voice Feeling like a hundred bucks Exchanging good looks face to face Checkin' his stash by the trash At St. Mark's place Children by the million Sing for Alex Chilton When he comes 'round They sing "I'm in love What's that song?I'm in love with that song"I never travel far Without a little big star Runnin' round the house Mikey Mouse and the Tarot cards Falling asleep with a flop pop video on If he was from Venus Would he meet us on the moon?If he died in Memphis, wouldn't that be cool?
