Skinny Bob

Verse 1

Skinny bob came through the atmosphere

Floating down on a beam of trembling light

Watched the cities blink and disappear

Stood among the humans in the night

Pre-Chorus

Why the borders drawn on paper

Why the hunger in the fields

Chorus

I brought a message from the stars

But your antennas cannot hear

All the frequencies of Mars

Falling on a deafened ear

Post-Chorus

Empty signals

Empty space

Empty signals

On your face

Verse 2

Touched a child crying by a wall

Showed her visions of a purple sky

Where the wars and weapons never fall

And the mother planets never die

Pre-Chorus

You've got oxygen and water

You've got fire in your hands

Chorus

I brought a message from the stars

But your antennas cannot hear

All the frequencies of Mars

Falling on a deafened ear

Post-Chorus

Empty signals

Empty space

Empty signals

On your face

Bridge

Saw the forests burning red

Saw the oceans turning gray

Felt a single tear instead

Turned my silver ship away

Guitar Solo

Chorus

I brought a message from the stars

But your antennas cannot hear

All the frequencies of Mars

Falling on a deafened ear

Post-Chorus

Empty signals

Empty space

Empty signals

On your face
