From Sleep Awake
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
[Little boy] Mommy, mommy, is he really here? Is Ziltoid really here?
[Little boy's mother:] Yes he is... in fact. There he is now!
Dominate, dominate, dominate
[Captain Spectacular] As your elected representative, I, Captain Spectacular, have the distinct honour of presenting to you the intergalactic sensation... Ziltoid The Omniscent!
[Ziltoid] Yes
So the mourning comes alive, now I can fly
Go, dominate their lives, I cry, but never forget this warning
I cry out loud, show me this chosen liar
Liar, liar, liar, liar... never!
[Narrator]
Humans are a strange species, equal parts good to evil, and at this time in their development they're not ready for interactions with other life forms
His appearance, and the reality that Ziltoid is from another planet, has thrown their primitive society into mass hysteria!!!
He is being revered as a God, for now
