Strange New World: You are an alien visiting the Earth. Write about what you found.

Because Danny Elfman does not actually OWN the #4…

lyrics

[Verse 1]
Twelvety light years,
And for most of your lives you’ve been training for this day.
All the right fears
Have been honing the edge of your seats in time for
Aerobraking, helmet shaking, making peace with Gleeble in his eminence.

[Chorus]
People of Earth, we bring you freedom,
Weapons aglow, and armored to the twelves,
Making friends at maximum warp.
Ready or not (ready or not), here we come,
Storming in hot to save you from yourselves.
Every human kneel and sing for the glory of Gleeble Glorp.

[Verse 2]
Stream out more slime.
I see patches of humans not in agony.
There’s no war crime,
When your enemy comes from a different point of
View. The way they look, the way they act, the way they worship’s just so alien.

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Just a scrimmage.
We can hardly expect a challenge to those made
In His image
From a people who still can’t keep from getting
Ice cream headaches, I mean come on. How can you not… no, forget it. Nevermind.

[Chorus]
