I Was Wrong

(Bley) Well I used to think this talk of spaceships Was just so much hype I really believed there was nothing out there Except the Stars and the Stripes I mean the scientists said they found out that There was nothing there on Mars So as far as I was concerned it was just The name of a candy bar I'm one of those kind of people Who need proof before they believe Close Encounters left me cold And Star Trek seemed naive When it came to UFO's I was of the scientific school Little green men with pointed heads Were for little kids and fools But I was wrong I was wrong I was real wrong I was wrong All along I was so wrong The people who believed that stuff Were always kind of odd I mean you might as well go all the way And believe in Jesus and God I knew I had the kind of mind That wasn't easily satisfied And besides I had enough problems on earth To keep me occupied And then one night I was standing Looking at the stars And I heard something that sounded like A hundred space guitars The music was so weird it could have Been the theme from Jaws Then I saw something flying over my head I thought it was Santa Claus But I was wrong I was wrong I was real wrong I was wrong All along I was so wrong
