I Married A Martian

(Ron & Russell Mael)

Well, I married a Martian
And boy, am I sorry

Well, she came down from the sky
She couldn`t stand the attitude there
She took human form, not bad
She seemed different
She had a European flair
And I said, "where you from?"
And she said, she said, "I`m from Mars"

I married a Martian
Her loving is different
Viva la diff=E9rence
Every, every night
I married a Martian
I took her to Vegas
I dressed her in ermine
She had the time of her life

Though she called me Mister Right
I could sense something was wrong
She was hardly home at all
She`d keep telling me
She was doing studies of Earth
She had tendencies to flirt
And it really did hurt me

I married a Martian
Boy, am I sorry
I don`t recommend it
To anyone in their right mind

I married a Martian
I think I see changes
I know I see changes
She doesn`t look like our kind

Her arms, her legs,
Were growing and growing
Her form, once thin,
Was changing, was changing
I can`t describe
The changes, so gruesome
She looked, she seemed
So Martian

I married a Martian
I`m going to Vegas
It isn`t for pleasure
I`m getting a quickie divorce

I married a Martian
Boy, am I sorry
I don`t recommend it
To anyone in their right mind

I married a Martian
Who was I kidding
She only had loved me
`Cause I was the first guy she saw

I married a Martian
And now it is over
Go back to your cronies
Back to your own form of life

I married a Martian
They`re good in the movies
Dramatic potential
But they`re not so hot in real life
