Everybody wants to make

Friends in the skies

Trying to ascend to

Planes of existence on high

Falling into trances

And trying to float away

Given up on earth and people

Headed for the astral plane



Certain of their help

To past civilizations

Ancient earth scattered with

Earth base stations

The angels aren't so far

They're in the mothership

Theirs is the power

They've been given lordship



And if there's life on other planets

Then we're sure that we must know

And they've been here here once already

And will come back to save our souls



Friends in the skies

Kidnap me today

Friends in the skies

See you in my dreams

Friends in the skies

My ears are open

Friends in the skies

I'll spread your prophecies



Everybody wants to make

Friends in the skies

With radar dish beams

And interplanetary satellites

Before the planet collapses

Under the weight of man

In search of saviors

For an ultimate weapons ban



Ecstatic in the explanations

For the existence of God

And the sophisticated advancements

Rendering Him obsolete as Lord

The gods aren't so far

They're in the mothership

Theirs is the power

They'll be given worship



And if there's life on other planets

Then we're sure that we must know

And they've been here here once already

And will come back to save our souls



Friends in the skies

Kidnap me today

Friends in the skies

See you in my dreams

Friends in the skies

My ears are open

Friends in the skies

I'll spread your prophecies



Everybody wants to make

Friends in the skies

Do they know they seek after

Something already familiarized

Sugar coated manifestations

Designed to achieve control

Of minds unsure and hungry

In their unacknowledged souls



A vibrant alternative

To the drab oppressive Church

Obtainig maximum experiences

With just a little work

The gods aren't so far

They're in the air all around

Theirs is the power

Since they were brought down



And if there's life on other planets

Then we're sure that we must know

And they've been here here once already

And will come back to save our souls



Friends in the skies

Kidnap me today

Friends in the skies

See you in my dreams

Friends in the skies

My ears are open

Friends in the skies

I'll spread your prophecies
