Against a dark background
On this backwater planet,
We are all just hicks and heathens
In the scheme of galactic beings.
Hush,
Don't speak so loud.
It's best to remain hidden,
Out of sight, safe and sound.
Like the lost Amazonian tribe
That rues the day it was found.

On this backwater planet,
We are all just hicks and heathens
In the scheme of galactic beings.
Hush,
Don't speak so loud.
It's best to remain hidden,
Out of sight, safe and sound.
Like the lost Amazonian tribe
That rues the day it was found.
