Verse 2
Cerebral rape and pillage in a village of his choice.
Invisible man who can sing in a visible voice.
Feeling like a hundred bucks, exchanging good lucks face to face.
Checkin' his stash by the trash at St. Mark's place.


Pre-Chorus
Children by the million sing for Alex Chilton when he comes round


Chorus
They sing, I'm in love, what's that song
I'm in love, with that song

Verse 3
Runnin' 'round the house, Mickey Mouse and the Tarot cards.
Falling asleep with a flop pop video on.
If he was from Venus, would he meet us on the moon?
If he died in Memphis, then that'd be cool, babe.


Pre-Chorus
Children by the million wait for Alex Chilton to come around


Chorus
They sing i'm in love, what's that song
I'm in love, with that song
I'm in love, what's that song
Yea i'm in love, with that song
