lyrics

They floated down with rays on silver wings
Strike force one they were sent to pacify us all
They killed most the folks we knew
With their rays of cold white light and they placed us in the zoo

A meager meal was served twice every day
While on a break from our forced labor
We did their dirty laundry

A stroke of luck, I see her every day
We had plans before
They turned them on their end
We had to suspend
The prime of our life
You know things didn't go quite right

Keep thinking
We'll locate a plan
She said we should keep loving
No we won't stop that

The guards they overheard
Now I'm working nights

Hatching plans
A desperate man
To poison their bedsheets
It was my only plan
But they caught wind of my scheme
Judge was lenient that day
I received no dinner tray

Years passed by till snow it never left
An age of ice
We never aged a day
While they suntanned in the bay
Where their summer homes where made
And their purple children played

Keep thinking
We'll locate a plan
She said we should keep loving
No we won't stop that
Then we spilled out on the streets
We kissed for the first time in three thousand years (and electric kiss)
They won't be missed
We'll die in bliss
