Week 23 - Hate Us ‘Cause They Ain​’​t Us (220609)

from Song A Week, Volume 7 by James Tristan Redding

/

lyrics

We always wondered if they're out there
Little green men from outer space
For all the hype around first contact
Shoulda' seen the looks on each little green face

Guess we're not what they expected
In the search for intelligent life
Sure didn't expect their little green anger
We barely made out alive

Little green war on the humans
Little green soldiers from Mars
Little green anger because their lives
Little green look different from ours

Maybe they hate us 'cause they ain't us
Maybe it's a jealousy thing
I got no clue in the faintest
But earth won't never be the same

Took them light years just to get here
On their futuristic ship
Call my crazy but I would be nicer
After such a cosmic trip
