Alien Girl

You were my space alien girl
In your spaceship you drove me wild
Like no other earthbound child
With your trip curled
Tentacle hair
Your thousand light year stare
That scared my dog
And stripped the walls
And left my houseplants bare

But I didn't care

That to speak you used smell
Dead fish and bad
Eggs when you were mad
Toilets when you were not well
And old books when you were sad
Though you really freaked my Dad

When you said hello

You were just my space alien type
You had crazy porkpie yellow
Eyes and purple skin
That felt like butchers tripe
Though more yellow, mellow
When we made love I have to say
You smelt like ripe
Fruit, which was your way

Of saying I was hogging the duvet

But it really blew away my mind
Your space race face
You blew it to a place
I don't normally think with, though
I did not really mind
I am just sad that you,
My space alien girl had to go
And disappear one day,
I think it was the CIA

Kidnapping you for experiments.
