Well I used to think this talk of spaceships |
|
Was just so much hype |
|
I really believed there was nothing out there |
|
Except the Stars and the Stripes |
|
I mean the scientists said they found out that |
|
There was nothing there on Mars |
|
So as far as I was concerned it was just |
|
The name of a candy bar |
|
I'm one of those kind of people |
|
Who need proof before they believe |
|
Close Encounters left me cold |
|
And Star Trek seemed naive |
|
When it came to UFO's |
|
I was of the scientific school |
|
Little green men with pointed heads |
|
Were for little kids and fools |
|
But I was wrong |
|
I was wrong |
|
I was real wrong |
|
I was wrong |
|
All along |
|
I was so wrong |
|
The people who believed that stuff |
|
Were always kind of odd |
|
I mean you might as well go all the way |
|
And believe in Jesus and God |
|
I knew I had the kind of mind |
|
That wasn't easily satisfied |
|
And besides I had enough problems on earth |
|
To keep me occupied |
|
And then one night I was standing |
|
Looking at the stars |
|
And I heard something that sounded like |
|
A hundred space guitars |
|
The music was so weird it could have |
|
Been the theme from Jaws |
|
Then I saw something flying over my head |
|
I thought it was Santa Claus |
|
But I was wrong |
|
I was wrong |
|
I was real wrong |
|
I was wrong |
|
All along |
|
I was so wrong |
