lyrics

10. Alien Phone Invasion
1. I think I'm in love with my mobile phone
Something's strange, I just can't leave it alone
Deep in my heart I know it's just not right
But it's the first thing I see in the morning and the last thing I see at night.

chorus
Children of the alien phones
The lights are on but no one's home.
Got a feeling down in my bones.

With our ears plugged in and our screens aglow.
The aliens invaded and we didn't even notice..

3. Aliens came to Earth with a master plan.
To get a mobile phone to every woman and man.
A silent invasion, and they're gaining traction.
With their pocket sized weapons of mass distraction.

chorus

Its total cold turkey and you feel all alone.
But you can wean yourself off it, a bit at a time,
My record's 8 minutes and am going for 9.

4. So with the population hypnotised or deranged.
The aliens took over our leaders brains.
I can feel their influence is holding sway.
Coz I don't understand a single word they say.
And they wont let anyone stand in their way
And they seem to get scarier day by day,
But it's time to fight back we can start today.

“Ooh look - a kitten!”
Oh well … I guess we're...

chorus

I think I'm in love with my mobile phone
Something's strange, I just can't leave it alone
Deep in my…
