Alien Migration

ALIEN MIGRATION

Aliens have recently taken over my mind
They're a friendly lot, they are
Obsessed by the pretty women we have
And the love of our fancy cars

They say they're thinking of migrating
Warned them it's not a bed of roses
Got a bunch of yahoos running the show
Amazing the problems it poses

Many of us live in the lap of luxury
Others don't have enough to eat
Power trips are the crux of our problems
We must have servants at our feet

So the choice is yours my alien friends
Don't know what it's like back home
Might think of checking out other planets
This is not the best one known

Carol Eastman November 10, 2013 at 9:22 AM Dragon says speak for yourself... He's worth knowing, or so he says... Now let me see...
