the legendary pink dots - the saucers are coming lyrics

it’s 6:30 p.m. on a cool spring evening
i’m standing at the sink washing dishes and gazing through the window at a rolling red sky
it’s all a part of the daily ritual
once in awhile my attention wanders as the voice on the radio gives me new information
crises and wonders in unequal doses
some of it sinks in and some of it just sort of floats by…in one ear out the other
a normal spring evening. the sort of evening where you’re just happy to be alive
just happy to be standing here washing dishes

this is a news flash
reports are reaching us that a formation of approximately fifteen flying saucers can be seen in the sky over st. ives cornwall
the spokesman for the ministry of defense has confirmed it cannot be ascertained where they come from and that they definitely are not weather balloons
as soon as we know more we’ll tell you about it

the saucers are coming

the eyes of the world are upon you
the hopes and prayers of liberty loving people everywhere march with you

(this is edward speaking as two different news reporters at the same time)
it’s 6:35 on a clear spring evening (it’s 6:35 on a cool spring evening)

and i’m standing in a field just outside jamestown
(and i’m standing in a field just outside ?j-pan?)
it’s unbelievable
imagine the sky is literally covered by four green and silver discs
(it’s unbelievable. the sky is covered by four green and silver discs.)
there are people crying in droves
(some are reflecting orange in the sun that’s setting)
there are others around campfires
(there are people crying in droves)
keeping warm. and there are crowds behind roped off areas taking photographs
(some people are sitting in tents and around campfires in some self-styled welcome committee)
some people have even set up some sort of self-styled welcoming committee and banners bearing mandelbrot symbols. (
there are crowds behind roped off areas taking photographs.)
it’s incredible. and as i speak the first tanks are arriving
(…self- styled welcoming committee and banners bearing the ?mantlecross?. and as i speak the first tanks are arriving
and now as the sun turns orange in the western sky each of the silver discs is changing color
there are now hundreds of setting suns in the sky

(a lot of static and low voices)
…with green…
…photos being taken…
…now…

what else can i say?
their green?
they haven’t showed their faces yet
haven’t heard their voices yet
they’re there but they’re inside. ??? ??? ??? comprehend ??? ??? ???

with liberty and ?chaos?, ?h-llo london?. goodnight to you all

come to me. i’ve been waiting so long
i don’t know who you are or what you are
whether you’re our past or our future
but i need you because i’ve waited long enough
and the saucers fly through the open window
they glide through my fingers
they land on my chest
they make knots in my hair
and i’m open and expecting on my makeshift alter
prepared for what ever the new people will deliver
i trust. because what else should i do but trust
what else should we do but trust
they should take the tax back
this is bigger than all of us so we may as well lay down and trust
there is no moon tonight, but the stars are whispering our names
there is no moon tonight, but the stars are whispering our names

…??? ??? outside of our comprehension…
(completely outside their comprehension.)…
trying to ??? ???. trying to ???
??? ??? everywhere ??? but sitting on top their ???
(i think they’re just sitting on the job. i think they are playing with our minds.)
??? ??? i don’t think they even care about the people
[there is no moon tonight, but the stars are whispering our names.]
(i don’t think they care about what the people think.)
we must trust them. you must trust our judgment
(everywhere road to the west country is blocked with traffic.)
(how do we trust their judgment?)
(people are coming from all over the country.)
(but i don’t think they’ve got anything under control.)
but we’ll get there. we’ll get there
(yeah…they just don’t get it.)
we’ll get there
oh thank christ
