Only three teeth? Definitely an alien!

I've got a few more than three, but my remaining molars have craftily arranged themselves so they're opposite gaps.
I can still gum my way through a lamb vindaloo, so it's not too bad - but I dream of crackling, and peanut brittle!
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!
