Rick Spisak
One guy’s alien
Is another guys pal
One girls off worlder
Is just another girl’s gal.
Sure it takes an effort
Yes twill take some labor
All this up looking
Yet is no time safer neighbor.
Strangely moving lights
Streaking across the sky
Yes we’re going to wonder
Whose that wanderin by?
Seen’m at the crossroads
Out by the water tower
Sure I’d like a ride
To wander for an hour.
Maybe it’s just a test
They’re teasing us for fun
Buzzing all those aeroplanes
Yet never firing guns
Streaking chasing across the sky
All at a blistering speed!
Just to make us wonder
Doubting what we’ve seen!
Now the pentagon has hinted
Yes they’ve raised the specter high!
Or is it really just fundraiser
For another slice of pie
Is that what we should connect here
Another raid on the cookie jar
Or is this a visit, quite exquisite
From a neighbor from a far?
Boogie men from Venus
Jazzmen back from mars
Tar’n feather, hell for leather
Put their entrails in a jar
Maybe we been infiltrated
Or a penal colony placed
But sure by brains we’re insulated
And by the churches graced
Can the clergy stand the strain
When big brother does appear
Will they rail from pulpits
Ranting shrieking panic speaking
Pound their dogmas till their leaking?
Their bibles out of date
When space brother bring those others
Religious Mirrors Break!
Run and tell your mothers been some mistake
When they take us fishin for a mission
Reality’s a fake!
Will we misunderstand
And tear up all confused
When space brothers,
And those others
Tell us all the news!
