Alien Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I know it isn't right to break your heart
I know it isn't fair to tear you apart
I know it isn't like the fairy tales
But I'm unladylike
So what?

[Verse 2]
I know I should behave the way you want
I know that I should do the things I don't
I know that I should want to be like her
But I know that I can't
So there!

[Chorus]
You knew all along
That I wasn't like that
Not like the other girls
Unlike anyone of this world
And you used to like that
So what you runnin' from?
You fell in love with an alien

[Verse 3]
I know it might be hard to understand
I know I don't fit in to all your plans
But I remember nights so long ago
You couldn't get enough, oh no
[Chorus]
You knew all along
That I wasn't like that
Not like the other girls
Unlike anyone of this world
And you usеd to like that
So what you runnin' from?
You fell in love with an aliеn

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
I know it isn't right to break your heart
I know it isn't fair to tear you apart

[Chorus]
You knew all along
That I wasn't like that
Not like the other girls
Unlike anyone of this world
And you used to like that
So what you runnin' from?

[Outro]
I know it isn't right to break your heart
I know it isn't fair to tear you apart

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
