Alien Hissy Fit

Aliens squirted mustard in my face [dodo]

(Perhaps they do that in their native land.) [tonedeaf]

As I squirmed in the hideous embrace [Neil]

Of a Thing with a nine-fingered hand. [Dassn't Say]

"Yuu no hoold dee pikell, Eardtling scuum!" [Kansas Sam]

They cried with evil grins and pulsing eyes [Nym]

"Dudes", I said, "dee pikell make it yum!" [Anon.]

This angered them "Yuu teel uz naastee lyes" [Nym]

How well they knew me, foreign though they were [Francine]

For in fact, I'm quite the liar [Karin]

In chorus, then, they growled, "grr, grr" [F]

And chanting thus they set my pants on fire [N]
