Lyrics
Hey Mr Spaceman, Welcome to this land
Hey wait a minute, what's that in your hand
Is it a blaster or just a talisman
I was taught to fight and taught to fear
what I don't understand.
Hey Mr spaceman
Mr Spaceman
Hey Mr Spaceman
Should I take you to my leader?
Should I take you to the cops?
The FBI the CIA, I'll take you to the top.
But anywhere I take you
you know they want to stop
The spaceman
they don't understand
Are you here to help the people?
Are you here to save the land?
Will you offer cosmic knowledge,
share a greater plan?
Is this our evolution is it our inheritance?
Will we cower in the fortress of our fear
and ignorance of the Spaceman?
The spaceman
the spaceman
Hey Mr Spaceman
All the generals in the army
would just want your weaponry.
Corporate labs would fight to patent
your unique biology.
Religious men would bury you to save theology,
from the spaceman
that wasn't in their plan.
Mr spaceman.
Hey Mr spaceman are you here to take command?
Will you subjugate the masses for resources of the land?
Well take a look around I think you'll need a better plan.
There's nothing left to pillage. Greed is God,
Greed is man!
Mr. Spaceman.
Hey Mr Spaceman are you gonna fly away?
Take me with you in your saucer,
Help me get away.
There's nothing left to hold me,
no reason I should stay.
Mr spaceman there's a reason I'm the one you met today.
Mr Spaceman.
Mr. Spaceman.
Hey Mr. Spaceman
oh Mr spaceman.
