Time is money... |
|
But space is a long, long time! |
|
Perhaps you are surprised |
|
To see i speak your language? |
|
But i have been monitoring |
|
Your earthly broadcasts for |
|
Many years... |
|
Many years... |
|
And the reception on my little planet |
|
Is extremely fine! |
|
Time is money... |
|
But space is a long, long time! |
|
On my lonely throne |
|
In the cosmic night i ponder the vast expanses |
|
Between your puny world and mine! |
|
From my couch-in-the-sky, |
|
As my planet goes by, |
|
I behold all your misery below there! |
|
I have seen all your lying, |
|
And crying, and dying, |
|
And, believe me, |
|
Your planet is nowhere! |
|
Space is a very long time! |
|
(and if the equation, |
|
As set forth above, |
|
Is proved when we get to |
|
The bottom line... |
|
The 'powers financial' |
|
I'll hold o'er your world |
|
Will complete my fantastic design!) |
|
And the whole 'equivalent earth' shall be mine! |
|
And the whole 'equivalent earth' shall be mine! |
|
And the whole 'equivalent earth' shall be mine! |
|
Mine! mine! |
