"Weird Al" Yankovic - Attack of the Radioactive Hamsters from a Planet Near Mars lyrics

They showed up on my doorstep
Just a couple weeks ago
They looked so sweet and harmless
Tell me, how was I to know
They got a little too close to the microwave
And then much to my surprise
They grew to forty thousand
Times their original size
They started mutatin' right before my eyes
Oh my

Attack of the radioactive hamsters from
A planet near Mars
A race from a distant place
They came in UFOs shaped
Just like Cuban cigars
Man oh man, you oughta hear 'em squeal
Now the whole wide world
Is their exercise wheel
Attack of the radioactive hamsters from
A planet near Mars

The president, he's is a panic
The Pentagon, they're in shock
There's a team of research scientists
They got 'em workin' 'round the clock
Now the National Guard is out in my backyard
And the Marines'll be comin' around
I hope they get these lousy
Rodents out of my town
Cause the property values are
Goin' way down now

Attack of the radioactive hamsters from
A planet near Mars
They're back and they're lookin'
For a snack and they're not that fond of
Burger Kings or salad bars
I hope they're not plannin' to stay
Who invited them here anyway
Attack of the radioactive hamsters from
A planet near Mars

Well, well, look at that hamster
He's as big as a blimp
And there's one the size of Central Park
They're using telephone poles to
Pick their teeth
They're evil and nasty and they
Glow in the dark
Oh, don't waste any more of your bullets
Boys you know it just makes 'em
Mad when you shoot
They're gonna stomp us into jelly
And conquer the world
But you gotta admit, they're
Really kinda cute, now

Attack of the radioactive hamsters from
A planet near Mars
What a racket they're makin', Jack
They keep me up at night
Playin' their electric guitars
Listen to 'em squeal
They think the whole stinkin' world
Is their exercise wheel
Attack of the radioactive hamsters from
A planet near Mars

Hey Jack, you better watch your back
Here come those hamsters from
A planet near Mars
Well, well, it's called the
Attack of the radioactive hamsters
From a planet a planet near Mars
