[Verse 1]
Is anybody up there?
In a ship from outer space
Yeah, I know that you're up there
I can see you by the lakes
So are you gonna get down here?
Are you gonna show your face?
'Cause I need to know we're not alone
I need to know it's not a drone
(It's a drone again)
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't need no bike to get him home
When we take off, just take it slow
Where he's from, man, I don't know
[Chorus]
Just take me with you when you go
Take me with you when you go
Take me with you cause I'm so done with this planet
It sucks, yeah, you can have it
I'd be down to see inside your UFO
Take me with you when you go
[Verse 2]
Is there anybody up there?
Cause if so I come in peace
Yeah, I know that you're up there
But it doesn't bother me
So come and get your ass down here
Yeah, let's freak out the freaks
And if it's cool, I'll stick with you
Cause these things are not like me
(I know the truth)
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't need no bike, don't need no phone
This ain't no X-Files episode
Damn, he's got space on his ride home
[Chorus]
Please take me with you when you go
Take me with you when you go
Take me with you cause I'm so done with this planet
It sucks, yeah, you can have it
I'd be down to see inside your UFO
Take me with you when you go
[Bridge]
When you go
Maybe we can take to the mothership
And we can watch it blow
Cause there's no turning back
The bag is packed
Goodbye hellish sack
Converting trash black cliff
Flip the switch that makes it all explode
Take me with you when you go
[Chorus]
(Is there anybody up there?)
(Is there anybody up there?)
Take me with you when you go
Take me with you when you go
Take me with you cause I'm so done with this planet
It sucks, yeah, you can have it
Are you down to let me drive your UFO?
Take me with you when you go
Take me with you when you go

Ben Barlow:
[It was] literally as simple as “we should write a song about aliens called ‘Take Me With You.’ A few of us in the band are big UFO heads, particularly Seb. It’s ultimately a little bit of fun before we come at people with the more meaningful stuff a little later down the line.
