Story Behind the Song
coming soon, the full story!
Lyrics
Countdown to the Millennium We didn't even start from number 1.
And back in the land where that all began Everyone's pointing their missiles at Sadam.
What if someone like God for instance, Looked down on us and maybe questioned our existence?
If he did come down and we called him Saviour What must he think now of our behaviour?
Greetings from Planet Earth! Can you hear me calling out into the Universe?
Greetings from Planet Earth! All you aliens! Welcome to our turf!
I went on-line the other night Got a screensaver from the SETI site
Collects data from incoming radio waves, and analyses it as it saves
If they get our telly and our radio, what do they make of the Jerry Springer Show?
In our Alien films we look really hard Thank God we've got Captain Jean-Luc Picard.
I'm not one for hostility, I'd rather have a spliff and a cup of tea
I'm not looking for confrontations, I just wanna send you good vibrations Greetings
If you think I just mean little green men, then open your mind and think again.
To a large degree I trust what I see, but I'm sure it's not the whole reality.
I don't believe we are all we perceive
And if we pay attention we get a glimpse of another dimension
How many people can honestly answer
They haven't looked up to the stars and seen the Cosmos as a dancer? Greetings
According to current quantum theory, the atoms we're made up of are clouds of probability
Multi-dimensional clouds no less, precisely how many is anybody's guess
I myself am quite inclined to think that everything is intertwined
I don't know what makes me think this way, It's probably something in my DNA
Between NOW and when the next chorus starts, we'll be 500 miles along our orbital path.
That's only counting round the sun, look further than that and it really gets fun...
Cos as passengers aboard the Milky Way train, you can double it and double it and double it again
So hold on tight and shout "wehey", this verse started 5000 miles away! Greetings
