Words by Jason Michael Freeman; music by Jason Michael Freeman, Alan Doorneweerd and Matt Lapperre.

lyrics

Something’s in the sky, don't think it's an airplane
Streaking through the sky
Coming down like scarlet rain
Maybe it's a meteor, maybe Hubble lost his way
Or maybe everyone on earth
Just moved down on the food chain

And everywhere a UFO
And I don't know which way to go
But I know that point of light that's devouring the night
Didn't come here just to say, "Hello!"

Something hit the ground
Felt just like an earthquake
Whatever's in my backyard didn’t have an air brake
With a shaking hand and a racing heart I step out to that crater's edge
I can't believe, I can't conceive what's down in that wreckage

And everywhere a UFO
And I’m not sure which way is home
But I know that creepy thing with the 17 wings
Didn't come here just to say, "Hello!"

Long way from home
Countless stars I've roamed
Only to end up here
On this churning, hate-filled sphere

I should've been been terrified
Could’ve grabbed my shotgun
But I reflected in its eyes
I saw I was the violent one
It stared at me and I at it
The time it seemed to ebb and flow
When suddenly it smiled and said,
"Welcome! Howdy! Hi! Hello!"

And everywhere a UFO
And I hope they all make it home
'Cause I know that point of light that was devouring the night
Only came here just to say, "Hello!"
