He puts on his tin foil hat and straightens the antennas
As he believes it helps him better connect to these alien life forms
Which for the last few months have been inhabiting his attic
He heard them arrive one morning about four a.m. and found it strange
They had no need for using any of his many doors or windows...
He has seen them at night when they thought his eyes were shut tight
But he tricked them by capturing a convincing albeit brief peek
Of what he has come to know and believe are little blue men from Venus
Though he can't be truly sure as he has never yet seen
Any evidence to support the existence of either a vagina or a penis
His neighbors think him mad...what with his purple Nike waffles
And his blanket his mommy used to wrap him in as a child
However, he pays them no mind as he intends to leave this world behind
When the Mother Ship arrives to retrieve him and the little blue men
