I was waiting in the express lane with my twelve items or less At the checkout counter at the local grocery store I was only passin' by But a paper caught my eye And I learned a few things I never knew before
It said your pet may be an extraterrestrial It said the ghost of Elvis is living in my den You can learn to cope with stress You can beat the IRS And the incredible frog boy is on the loose again
Oh, Midnight Star It's in the weekly Midnight Star Aliens from outer space are sleeping in my car Midnight Star, I wanna know, I wanna know
Eat jelly doughnuts, and lose twenty pounds a day Hear the story of the man born without a head And top psychics all agree That the telephone company Will have a brand new service that lets you talk to the dead
Oh, Midnight Star You can believe it if you read it in the weekly Midnight Star They're keeping Hitler's brain alive inside a jar Midnight Star, I wanna know, I wanna know
Tell me, tell me, tell me how to make my bust-line grow Midnight Star, I wanna know
