From a Little Yellow Star
There’s a little yellow star on the edge of the Milky Way.
Our strongest telescopes were able to find it the other day.
We are receiving a radio signal from far away.
Dr. Zort has made a brilliant determination.
He has pinpointed the source of the signal’s origination.
It comes from one of the eight planets that orbit the star.
Because of the great distance, the signal travels far.
We thought we heard a female voice singing “You’re gonna hear me roar”.
There was some static interference. We didn’t hear much more.
What do you make of it? Does that message make sense?
We must conclude that life on that planet lacks intelligence.
