War of the Worlds (An Error in Intergalactic Communication)
[Intro: 50's b sci-fi movie theremin] [Verse 1] I think it was a Tuesday, When the Aliens came down. Took a look and said, Hey, quit clowning around. You're like rabid monkeys Tearing up the town. We said , Excuse me? Who the hell are you? To come down here And tell us what to do? It's our inherent right To act like fools! The Alien shook his finger and gave us the look Show us some respect Or you guys are cooked We laughed and said Someone's lookin' to get nuked. The Aliens paused, Then let out a big sigh, They got in their ships And took to the sky. We laughed and cheered But we were all about to die. [Pre-chorus] We thought we were smart, We thought we were bright, We thought we had a chance, But we wouldn't win this fight... [Chorus] War of the Worlds, Humanity is done, It's all coming down, There's no where to run. We had it all figured out, We thought we knew it all, We though we were tough, And that was our downfall [Verse 2] The government warned us, they said, Hey look at this! But we just laughed and said, What about that Epstein List? We'd become a disease, that wouldn't be missed. The Aliens said, You've gone astray Killing everything day after day. You're filled with hate, It wasn't meant to be this way. We've watched from afar, With growing concern, We hoped one of these days, You might actually learn. But we can no longer watch as your planet burns. [Pre-chorus] We thought we were smart, We thought we were bright, We thought we had a chance, But we wouldn't win this fight... [Chorus] War of the Worlds, Humanity is done, It's all coming down, There's no where to run. We had it all figured out, We thought we knew it all, We thought we were tough, And that was our downfall [Bridge] We puffed out our chests, And looked them in the eyes, Told them to go to hell and let the nukes fly. We watched them go, cheered and high fived, Our beautiful missles, High in the skies, Slammed into their ships, and bounced off like flies. Then it was said from the ground below came from humanity a collective uh-oh... [Pre-chorus] We thought we were smart, We thought we were bright, We thought we had a chance, But we wouldn't win this fight... [Chorus] War of the Worlds, Humanity is done, It's all coming down, There's no where to run. We had it all figured out, We thought we knew it all, We didn't know shit, And that was our downfall
