Stranger Things in The Land of Enchantment

[Verse 1]
I packed a bag in Albuquerque with a camera and map in my hand
Headed east on the 40 to 285 with lots of questions and a plan
The radio hissed and crackled as I crossed the desert floor
Going on about those lights back in '47that were never seen before
Headed down to Roswell, where the truth gets buried all the time
I'm just a reporter chasing aliens with a flash card and an open mind

[Pre-Chorus]
They say that ‘Stranger Things’ happen when you're not looking for signs
Out here beneath the stars and flowing tequila, there's a very thin line

[Chorus]
From the quirky town of Roswell to Truth-or-Consequences
In the Land of Enchantment something strange is always brewing
Alien crafts reported by ranchers then denied by official sources
In southeast New Mexico, you never know what you might be seeing

[Verse 2]
Alien-themed souvenir shops line Roswell’s central strip
I snapped a few pictures then asked the locals for a hot tip
Driving past Alamogordo, I caught dancing lights among the stars
When I pulled into White Sands, I saw strange markings on my car
By the time I got to Las Cruces my hair was standing on end
I noticed the clock on my dashboard stopped as I tried to call a friend

[Pre-Chorus]
They say that ‘Stranger Things’ happen when you're not looking for signs
Out here beneath the stars and flowing tequila, there's a very thin line

[Chorus]
From the quirky town of Roswell to Truth-or-Consequences
In the Land of Enchantment something strange is always brewing
Alien crafts reported by ranchers then denied by official sources
In southeast New Mexico, you never know what you might be seeing
