|
If we received a warning call, |
|
Would we change at all? |
|
Close your eyes and make believe |
|
And tell me what you see. |
|
Will we rise |
|
From our sleep |
|
Like a bolt from the blue? |
|
Will we realise? |
|
If they found a tube in outer space |
|
And no-one knew who put it there. |
|
If they looked inside and |
|
Found out they'd lived lonely lives, |
|
Followed by a lonesome death |
|
They sent it hoping we would learn |
|
They blew it here with their final breath. |
|
They made a list of their mistakes- |
|
It looked a lot like ours. |
|
If it happened, do you think we'd learn? |
|
Do you think we'd learn? |
|
Will we rise |
|
From our sleep |
|
Like a bolt from the blue? |
|
Will we realise? |
|
If they knew how to talk through space, |
|
And we received a warning call |
|
Do you think we'd learn? |
|
Would it be in vain? |
|
Do you think we'd learn? |
|
Let's not end our days |
|
Like they did on earth. |
