It’s the same here as always; centuries on since my last report these earthlings are still killing themselves It’s the same here as always; they’re still telling lies to one another; and as before they’re good at disguising their intentions so good they cheat themselves It’s the same here as always; they’re eating so much of their earth and rubbishing the space round their planet; they learn but they’re too slow and when they’re smart they’re too smart for their own good It’s the same here as always; they’re imagining things and the things they imagine are always more real to them than the reality: please refer to my earlier reports on their religions and their ideas of good and evil It’s the same here as always; they’re still messing up things and they think their messiahs will come and fix things up for them; they never think for themselves but must always rely on revelation and authority It’s the same here as always; they still think I’m a lobster hanging over them in their polluted sky. Can I come home, please? – it’s really boring watching these dumb guys! It’s the same here as always; centuries on since my last report these earthlings are still killing themselves. I wish they’d do it a little quicker so I get to go home!

Alien Lobster’s Latest Report on Planet Earth
It’s the same here as always; centuries on since my last report these earthlings are still killing themselves It’s the same here as always; they’re still telling lies to one another; and as before they’re good at disguising their intentions so good they cheat themselves It’s the same here as always; they’re eating so much of their earth and rubbishing the space round their planet; they learn but they’re too slow and when they’re smart they’re too smart for their own good It’s the same here as always; they’re imagining things and the things they imagine are always more real to them than the reality: please refer to my earlier reports on their religions and their ideas of good and evil It’s the same here as always; they’re still messing up things and they think their messiahs will come and fix things up for them; they never think for themselves but must always rely on revelation and authority It’s the same here as always; they still think I’m a lobster hanging over them in their polluted sky. Can I come home, please? – it’s really boring watching these dumb guys! It’s the same here as always; centuries on since my last report these earthlings are still killing themselves. I wish they’d do it a little quicker so I get to go home!
