Alien Girl (Today With Her) Lyrics

[Produced by Sounwave]

[Chorus]
She look better than Beyoncé, Alicia Keys, Halle Berry, Miss Jolie
Where's she from? No I.D. (That girl's an alien)
And if I die before I wake, I pray that I'm in outer space
UFO, fly away

[Post-Chorus]
So, let's go, go, go, go
Let's go, go, go, go
Let's go, go, go, go
Let's go, let's go

[Verse 1]
Uh, she got me goin' (Now, she goin'), I'm all in (All in)
Fifty stories (Damn), I'm fallin' (Mm)
Where you been? Is it planet Mars?
Far beyond the stars? Are you a Martian?
You're unfamiliar (Unfamiliar) but still, I feel ya (Feel me?)
Energy is sendin' me towards the ceilin'
I'm high now (High now?), are you up there? (Up there?)
If you was, I would climb every other stair (Mm)
I gotta stare (Gotta stare), I mean, wow
And I'm wowed, no one compares (No one compares)
A one-on-one (One-on-one), you must've won (Must've won)
Every pageant in America when you was young
[Pre-Chorus]
Lips, hips, hair drip down her back (Crazy)
Body frame (Crazy), insane (Crazy)
The only girl that can make time
Then make me stop—

[Chorus]
She look better than Beyoncé, Alicia Keys, Halle Berry, Miss Jolie
Where's she from? No I.D. (That girl's an alien)
And if I die before I wake, I pray that I'm in outer space
UFO, fly away

[Post-Chorus]
So, let's go, go, go, go
Let's go, go, go, go
Let's go, go, go, go
Let's go, let's go

[Verse 2]
Uh, so, now we on (Now we on), so, now we goin' (Now we goin')
Livin' in the city of the unknown (Unknown)
I show her off (Show me off), I stunt with her (Stunt with me)
We do it sweet (Do it sweet), they look bitter (Mm)
Look at her get up (Look at my get up), I hear 'em say (What they say?)
"But why him?" ("Why him?") I hear 'em hate (Hear them hate)
I laugh at it, rather than jab at it
Then continue eternal life as a crack addict
'Cause I'm addicted (You addicted), and you the drug (Drug)
Cold turkey? (No way) No, sir (Mm-mm)

You gotta be an Odyssey from heaven and above
You definitely know, probably, I gotta give it up
[Pre-Chorus]
Lips, hips, hair drip down her back (Crazy)
Body frame (Crazy), insane (Crazy)
The only girl that can make time
Then make me stop

[Chorus]
She look better than Beyoncé, Alicia Keys, Halle Berry, Miss Jolie
Where's she from? No I.D. (That girl's an alien)
And if I die before I wake, I pray that I'm in outer space
UFO, fly away

[Post-Chorus]
So, let's go, go, go, go
Let's go, go, go, go
Let's go, go, go, go
Let's go, let's go

[Outro]
You somethin' different, I'm glad I found you
So pretty, I'll never do anythin' to hurt you

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

Perhaps one of Kendrick Lamar’s catchiest early songs, “Alien Girl (Today With Her)” demonstrated his ability to appeal to the opposite sex, while simultaneously furthering the themes found throughout Overly Dedicated: adolescent love and addiction.

This Sounwave-produced track contains a sample from Q-Tip’s November 1999 single, “Let’s Ride”:

The instrumental was co-produced by none other than the legendary J Dilla.
