I Was Wrong |
Well I used to think this talk of spaceships |
Was just so much hype |
I really believed there was nothing out there |
Ecept 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 |
CHORUS |
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 Clause |
CHORUS |
