Just Visiting

When we first began And man received his present name We were worshipping the sun and moon And hoping it would rain Thinking we were puppets Of some universal power We expected his arrival any hour Suddenly it came A chariot across the sky Roaring like an angry tiger Giving us a great surprise And what was surely God indeed Stepped out a burning plane Proceeding to explain I'm not your maker An angel or a saint divine Not your Creator Giving you a holy sign I am a spaceman And I'm just visting the earth You are an apeman And I've been visiting you Ever since your birth Man was but a child And little did he understand And he couldn't write this story down So his children heard it second hand And what was pure and simple Now a miracle became The spaceman was its name I'm not your maker An angel or a saint divine Not your Creator Giving you a holy sign I am a spaceman And I'm just visting the earth You are an apeman And I've been visiting you Ever since your birth And now we've joined the race Travellers in outer-space Very soon we too might have to say I'm not your maker An angel or a saint divine Not your Creator Giving you a holy sign I am a spaceman And I'm just visting your earth You are an apeman And I've been visiting you Ever since your birth...
