[Verse 1]
I could not take it oh so seriously really
When you called and said you'd seen a UFO
But then it dawned on me the message in writing
Spelt out a meeting never dreamed of before
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I looked out, in the night
Strange and startling
Was this voice of time just saying
[Chorus 1]
There's got to be a linking of everyone
Got to be a centre
It all comes flooding back
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Arriving through the eons of times
Immortal power of the future to behold
Vessels of a different impression
None that we could ever hope to have known
[Pre-Chorus 2]
So look out, in the night
Once they arrive
On that perennial light
[Chorus 2]
Impress a bolder empire of energy
In the ships we see
The coming of outer space
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
You say there's no reason to conjure
With the force as it has been known to be seen
You say I'm a fool, a believer
Put your feet on the earth, it is green
[Pre-Chorus 3]
But look out, in the night
Wait for they arrive
To start such sciences anew
[Chorus 3]
Here it is the coming of outer space
Such a pure delight
The coming of outer space
[Instrumental Break & Solos]
[Outro]
Look out!
Look out!
Look out!
Look out!
Look out!
Look out!
Look out!
[Instrumental Outro]
