You’re going out broadcasting my name

Did god not furnish you with brains?

If they are there they’re there therefore

Their silence may be called for

If they are there they’re there and mute

So maybe we should follow suit

They might know something that we don’t

Something our pride is hiding

I ain’t laying claim to sanity

I’m talking more about vanity

If there were mirrors in the sky

Well then we’d shut down SETI

There is a wilderness more wild

Than anything you can conceive

Straight way up 70 miles

Silence is eternity

It’s not that they could be our kings

It’s more about fuck ups like Nanjing

Do we need an overlord

That finds us underwhelming?

You don’t defend your house and home

By jumping down a rabbit hole

You can’t defend the open sky

Let alone our actions

And all that talk about ET being advanced

Would only mean he wears the pants

High tech don’t mean higher moral standards man

That’s kind of racist

You’re thinking like they’re coming to us to learn

You think maybe they haven’t heard?

They might be little

Might be green

But hardly green with envy

There’s a wilderness more wild

Than anything you can conceive

Straight way up 70 miles

Silence is eternity

There’s a wilderness so wild

You don’t want anybody seeing

Especially those who seem to know

And are willing to forgive
