lyrics

He was coming down the stairs of the house
On his tippy tippy toes like a little mouse
And when he was up he went back down
He would’ve gone outside but he did not want to drown

Oh he was a scientist, the bastard child of a suicide
He had a hypothesis: be kind to us and we would be kind

The angry city slickers all know
He hisses and he hums like a radio
And when he’s near the channel is snow
We can’t afford to lose our televisual show

Oh the man from Uranus
He isn’t sure of us
He’s got a bug up his nose
Oh the man from Uranus
He had to burden us with knowledge of UFOs

Where is all the wisdom you seek
You haven’t slept at all and it’s been almost a week
We wouldn’t play the dangerous game
And you and me know that society is to blame

Oh the man from Uranus
He is so curious about the power of flight
Oh the man from Uranus
He wants assurances, and we deny him that right
