Well I'm a Astranger here in this place called Earth
and I was sent down here to discover the worth
Of your Dlittle blue planet third from the sun
ACome on and show me what you've done
(main riff 2X)
We've got the Aaero plane, we've got the automobile
We've got sky scrapin' buildings made of glass and steel
We've got sDynthetic food that nearly tastes real
And a lEittle white pill that makes you feel "Hey!"
A wAhole lot better when you get outta bed
You take one in the mornin' for the long day ahead
We've got Deverything everybody needs to survive
ESurely the good life has arrived
I Athink your atmosphere is hurting my eyes
And your Dconcrete mountains are blacking out the skies
Now I dBon't say that you've been telling me lies
But wEhy do I hear those children's cries
I'm a Astranger here, I'm just looking around
I see the Aaero planes carrying the bombs
Why, you've Deven found people to drop them on
You kBnow you can't keep what you take by force
But iEt's only my first impression of course
And AI'm a stranger here on the planet Earth
(main riff 2X)
We've got the Arivers and the mountains and the valleys and the trees
We've got the birds in the sky, we've got the fish in the sea
We've got the... DOh you crazy Gfools don't you know you Chad it made
You were living in PFaradise
But Dtake it from one who knows.. Who knows the gGates of Heaven can close
CI only pray that you take my advice... Because EParadise won't come twice
Well AI'm a stranger here in this place called Earth
And I was sent down here to discover the worth
Of your Dlittle blue planet third from the sun
I think I'll Ago back home where I come from
(main riff 4X)

Well I'm a stranger here in this place called Earth

and I was sent down here to discover the worth

Of your little blue planet third from the sun

Come on and show me what you've done

(main riff 2X)

We've got the aero plane, we've got the automobile

We've got sky scrapin' buildings made of glass and steel

We've got synthetic food that nearly tastes real

And a little white pill that makes you feel "Hey!"

A whole lot better when you get outta bed

You take one in the mornin' for the long day ahead

We've got everything everybody needs to survive

Surely the good life has arrived

I think your atmosphere is hurting my eyes

And your concrete mountains are blacking out the skies

Now I don't say that you've been telling me lies

But why do I hear those children's cries

I'm a stranger here, I'm just looking around

I see the aero planes carrying the bombs

Why, you've even found people to drop them on

You know you can't keep what you take by force

But it's only my first impression of course

And I'm a stranger here on the planet Earth

(main riff 2X)

We've got the rivers and the mountains and the valleys and the trees

We've got the birds in the sky, we've got the fish in the sea

D G C

We've got the... Oh you crazy fools don't you know you had it made

You were living in Paradise

D G

But take it from one who knows.. Who knows the gates of Heaven can close

C E

I only pray that you take my advice... Because Paradise won't come twice

Well I'm a stranger here in this place called Earth

And I was sent down here to discover the worth

Of your little blue planet third from the sun

I think I'll go back home where I come from

(main riff 4X)
