Song updated, review now!
Ahhhahhahhahh

verse 1
She came from Planet Claire
I knew she came from there
She drove a Plymouth Satellite
Faster than the speed of light

verse 2
Planet Claire has pink air
All the trees are red
No one ever dies there
No one has a head

Ahhhahhahhahh

verse 3
Some say she's from Mars
Or one of the seven stars
That shine after 3:30 in the morning
WELL SHE ISN'T

Ahhhahhhahhahhahhahh

"Planet Claire" is a song by the B-52's, released as the second single from their self-titled debut album in July 1979. Based on Duane Eddy's version of Henry Mancini's Peter Gunn theme, the single reached number 43 on the Australian Kent Music Report chart and number 24 on the Billboard dance chart in the US.

Cash Box said that "bongos, Ventures-influenced guitar work and morse code blips are calling all pop, AOR audiences to dance to this humorous follow up to 'Rock Lobster'." Record World said that it had "an undeniable rhythm track" and "more unique synthesizer lines" compared to "Rock Lobster".

In 2011, band member Kate Pierson expressed her dissatisfaction with the way engineer Robert Ash mixed her vocals with the Farfisa organ on the studio version, using effects to make her vocals "sound like a synthesizer", and stated that she prefers the sound of live performances of the song.
