I’ve been hearing about them
Since the days of my youth
But the government says it
Could not be farther from the truth
There’s no such thing as
“Little Green Men”
But ask Travis Walton
For five days where he’s been?
UFOs and UAPs
Lights up in the sky
As yet, I’ve never seen one
But with eyes wide open I try
Our universe over thirteen billion years old
Bigger than anything else known
Trillions of stars with planets
Life can’t be just on our own
Our own planet Earth
Only four billion years old
Stands to reason
The new kids on the block so bold
The odds of us being all there is
Pretty damn small in comparison
Believers growing day by day
A dwindling bipartisan
The government running out of excuses
Now admit they don’t know what they are
The big question of “Are we alone?”
The answer is closer than the stars
Sooner or later
We’ll know for sure
The identity of our neighbors
So distant and obscure
Maybe we’ll have new friends
Stop in and sit awhile
What’s new in the cosmos?
Where all aliens learn to smile
