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 posh words just telecommunique
|
back on my planet you cannot tell lies, 'cos everyone would see it by the look in your eye
|
parties that 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, and 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 tokin' 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
|
|
something going on, something going on, 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 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 get to see a new sun arive, I'll be myself, blame it on the other side
|
I'll slip away, I'll do it with ease, I'll take a cheap seat, please...
|
|
CHORUS:
|
'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 a polythene 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 the 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 on-ly one thing I-wanna... know
|
|
CHORUS:
|
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
|
if 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...
