Mr. Spaceman Lyrics
Woke up this morning with light in my eyes
and then realized it was still dark outside
It was a light coming down from the sky
I don´t know who or why
Must be those strangers that come every night
Whose saucers shaped light put people up tight
Leave blue green footprints that glow in the dark
I hope they get home all right
Hey Mr.Spaceman, won´t you please take me along
I won´t do anything wrong
Hey Mr.Spaceman, won´t you please take me along
for a ride
Woke up this morning, I was feeling quite weird
Had flies in my beer, my tooth paste was smeared
I opened my window, they´d written my name
said: "So long, we´ll see you again".
Hey Mr.Spaceman, won´t you please take me along
I won´t do anything wrong
Hey Mr.Spaceman, won´t you please take me along
for a ride
Hey Mr.Spaceman, won´t you please take me along
I won´t do anything wrong
Hey Mr.Spaceman, won´t you please take me along
for a ride
and then realized it was still dark outside
It was a light coming down from the sky
I don´t know who or why
Whose saucers shaped light put people up tight
Leave blue green footprints that glow in the dark
I hope they get home all right
I won´t do anything wrong
Hey Mr.Spaceman, won´t you please take me along
for a ride
Had flies in my beer, my tooth paste was smeared
I opened my window, they´d written my name
said: "So long, we´ll see you again".
I won´t do anything wrong
Hey Mr.Spaceman, won´t you please take me along
for a ride
I won´t do anything wrong
Hey Mr.Spaceman, won´t you please take me along
for a ride

It makes me cry. Despite being brutally anally probed, he still hopes "they get home all right"
"Mr. Spaceman" always seemed to me to be an allegory for a "Jesus Christ" type figure in a modern world in which the childlike "magic" of life is ground to paste by the world. The song presents an escape from the pains of reality. Or perhaps the band thought it was a trippy tune that needed unorthodox lyrics.
country-esque.
Roger and some friends saw a UFO in the Malibu hills in California, so he went home and wrote this song. Later the bank was insured by Lloyds of London against being picked up by aliens.
Not the bank but the BAND was insured by Lloyds of London against being picked up by aliens.
