lyrics
We met under some strange circumstances
Is it any wonder we were getting all those sideways glances?
I remember how those people stared in awe
When they saw us walk together, you holding my hand in your claw
So who cares if you've got six arms?
Acidic spit, a head enlarged
What makes us different is what makes us whole
Just let them hate what they don't understand
What we have is great, and that's all I ask
In time they'll see that we're breaking the mold
I don't care what they say
I moved into your UFO
Our love's banned in forty states
My cardiac probe won't let me let you go
I remember our first date on one warm spring night
I ate a sandwich; you unhinged your jaw and ate a cat in one bite
When I introduced you to my parents, they screamed
They told me white should be with white, and green should only be with green
They always said don't judge on race
So why the change on your three-nosed face?
No stinging sneer will ever beat us down
Pay no attention to the ignorant ones
Their narrow minds can't see through the dust
Who are they to judge where love can be found?
I don't care what they say
I moved into your UFO today
Our love's banned in forty states
My cardiac probe won't let you go away
Is it any wonder we were getting all those sideways glances?
I remember how those people stared in awe
When they saw us walk together, you holding my hand in your claw
So who cares if you've got six arms?
Acidic spit, a head enlarged
What makes us different is what makes us whole
Just let them hate what they don't understand
What we have is great, and that's all I ask
In time they'll see that we're breaking the mold
I don't care what they say
I moved into your UFO
Our love's banned in forty states
My cardiac probe won't let me let you go
I remember our first date on one warm spring night
I ate a sandwich; you unhinged your jaw and ate a cat in one bite
When I introduced you to my parents, they screamed
They told me white should be with white, and green should only be with green
They always said don't judge on race
So why the change on your three-nosed face?
No stinging sneer will ever beat us down
Pay no attention to the ignorant ones
Their narrow minds can't see through the dust
Who are they to judge where love can be found?
I don't care what they say
I moved into your UFO today
Our love's banned in forty states
My cardiac probe won't let you go away
