Intro

Oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

Mm

Verse 1

The morning came and knocked on his front door

He opened it in nothing but a tiny robe

(It's him again)

He said the party never ends it just moves next door

He's already got his dancing shoes on

I asked him if he ate some breakfast yet

He said his planet only feeds on fizz and light

(That explains a lot)

He grabbed a bowl of cereal and ate it upside down

Then asked if we could teach him how to sing

Pre-Chorus

He said the neighbors formed a band and they need a star

(They picked him)

He said he'll play the laser harp but there isn't one

(He'll imagine)

He practiced all his chords on a garden rake

(It's a rake)

He told us all the moon is our new dance floor now

(The moon's the floor)

Chorus

He stayed for the morning, he's spinning around again

He's doing his spin in the middle of the street

He came from the stars and he made us his home

He opened one door and he never looked back

(He's never looking back)

He stayed for the morning, he's spinning around again

He's teaching the grannies how to do the bump

He came from the stars and he made us his home

(He's not going home)

Post-Chorus

Morning again

Morning again

He's here to stay

Morning again

Verse 2

He started a little stall out on the corner

Selling star maps from his broken flying saucer

(It's just paper)

He said the hand-drawn lines all point to his house

And every single one leads straight to the party

He painted his front door a shimmering green

Said that's the color of his homeworld sun

(That's a nice green)

The mailman asked him for a signed photo

He autographed a napkin and gave it with a bow

Pre-Chorus

He said the council wants to make him mayor now

(He's very popular)

He said he'll build a spaceship out of cardboard and glue

(That's ambitious)

He promised every Tuesday we get free ice cream

(Free ice cream)

He swore the town hall would double as a rave

(A rave at city hall)

Chorus

He stayed for the morning, he's spinning around again

He's doing his spin in the middle of the street

He came from the stars and he made us his home

He opened one door and he never looked back

(He's never looking back)

He stayed for the morning, he's spinning around again

He's teaching the grannies how to do the bump

He came from the stars and he made us his home

(He's not going home)

Bridge

He built a little rocket out of rusty cans

Said he'd fly around the block

He promised us a tour of his favorite stars

Then remembered he left the engine at the dock

(Hey)

Build

He's our sunshine now

(He's our sunshine now)

He's our weather forecast

(He's our weather forecast)

He came from the stars

(And found his people)

He's here to stay at last

Drop

Round and round and round he goes

Where he stops nobody knows

(Round and round)

Where he stops nobody knows

Final Chorus

He stayed for the morning, he's spinning around again

He's doing his spin in the middle of the street

He came from the stars and he made us his home

He opened one door and he never looked back

(He's never looking back)

He stayed for the morning, he's spinning around again

He's teaching the grannies how to do the bump

He came from the stars and he made us his home

(He's not going home)

Outro Vocal

Never looking back

Never looking back

Oh-oh

Mm-hmm

This is home
