In the Netherlands, many radio stations did not play the Ch!pz' songs because most of the listeners found their songs too childish.

“Attention, attention, calling Chipz, calling Chipz.
There’s been an UFO sighting on the interstate highway 517.”
“Rach-L to controle, I’m ready for a cover-up.”
There’s something strange knocking on your door,
you don’t know who to turn to, can’t take it anymore.
There’s something weird right above your roof,
you don’t know who to call, there’s an E.T. on the move.
Chipz is back, we are back in black.
Making up a story, as we cover any tracks.
Who you gonna call when your home alone, who you gonna call tonight?
Who you gonna call in the twilight zone, Chipz is gonna make it right!
Chipz is back,
back in black,
Chipz is back!
“The UFO is moving south, I repeat, the UFO is moving south.”
There’s something strange crawling on the floor,
you’re running to your neighbours, you can’t take it anymore.
There’s something odd, you feel it in your hair,
the UFO is lifting as you look up in the air.
Chipz is back, we are back in black.
Making up a story as we cover any tracks.
Who you gonna call when your home alone, who you gonna call tonight?
Who you gonna call in the twilight zone, Chipz is gonna make it right! (Chipz is back)
Who you gonna call when your home alone, who you gonna call tonight? (Come on)
Who you gonna call in the twilight zone, Chipz is gonna make it right!
“Kevin to our cause, I found the UFO, and I’m preparing to step inside.”
We’re checking up and down,
we’re looking all arround,
we’re going into places where the aliens are found. (2x)
Chipz is back, (Yeah)
we are back in black. (Come on)
Making up a story, as we cover any tracks.
Who you gonna call when your home alone, who you gonna call tonight? (Who you gonna call)
Who you gonna call in the twilight zone, Chipz is gonna make it right! (The UFO is neutralized)
Who you gonna call when your home alone, who you gonna call tonight? (We’re heading back to base)
Who you gonna call in the twilight zone, Chipz is gonna make it right!
