Out There

If you think that we're alone,
your head is screwed on wrong.
In the whole wide universe,
there is more than one song.

A hundred zillion planets
are waiting to be found.
A billion alien species
wait if we look around.

They might look much different,
but life is life is life.
They live, breathe and propagate; 
they also have their strife.

So, Mankind, you must take heed
and get off your high horse.
You're not the top of the heap;
there are those with greater force.
