Back on my planet, they laugh at my jokes
And everyone drinks and everyone smokes
No one speaks 'less there's something to say
There's no false words just telecommunique
Back on my planet you cannot tell lies
'Cos everyone can see it by the look in your eye
Parties all last for a couple of days
No one sleeps 'cos beds are prohibited
Back on my planet, silence is granted
We're laughing at the earthlings
Back on my planet, back on my planet
And meanwhile…
Back on my planet where dinosaurs roam
With uncut TV beaming into your home
As mother nature being eager and free
Money don't talk just givin' ability
Back on my planet, rules are all slanted
We're talkin' to be broken
Back on my planet, back on my planet, back on my planet…
Take a trip down an open road, all the eyes on an evening star
Gets to move a bit closer to the ground, like night at play
Wanna know what I need to know, wanna see that we ain't in charge
Where the superpowers will try to run it down
All alone, you're not alone
'Cos it's a meeting time for a different neighbour, small and slight and grey
There's something going on
There's something going on
There's something going on
Look into those eyes, it comes as no surprise
" It's little more than science fiction" the government replies
They could be taking our daughters, they could be taking our ladies
Making sky babies, sky babies, sky babies
I, I'm looking at the sky tonight, everything clear and defined, just like the last time
All ideas inside my head, anything like a real one
I'm looking from the floor tonight, weary of humankind
Tired of the chains that bind, wasting time on diatribe
And all the time the walls are closing in, I'm feeling stuck inside again
With something more divine than suicide, more generous than faith
'Cos when I see a new sun arrive, I'll be myself bathin' on the other side
A simple way to win with ease, I'll take a cheap seat please
'Cos you're the only one thing I wanna know
So won't you take me with you when you go
And there's a million feelings I wanna show
If you take me with you when you go
Yesterdays dreams don't mean nothing it seems
'Cos the big life keeps them waiting
And the people we find with another thin mind
They just don't care at all
And the halcyon days of innocence stays
As a memory plays it one more time
Here today, gone tomorrow
This is it in layman's terms, phenomenon of UFOs
Is well acknowledged by the state but secret to the president
Employed to be a public face and keep the public feeling safe
But higher powers in government hide something a million times
The size of the killing of JFK, the CIA are aware that higher
Powers exist with untold knowledge of life and death dimension
It could alter public awareness of religion, which is the only faith
That keeps us all in true control, and that's why we can never know
They're shaking and they're fucking us again
'Cos you're the only one thing I wanna know
So won't you take me with you when you go
And there's a million feelings I wanna show
If you take me with you when you go
'Cos you're the only one thing I wanna know
So won't you take me with you when you go
And there's a million feelings I wanna show
If you take me with you when you go
'Cos you're the only one thing I wanna know
