Postcard From Planet Earth Lyrics - Skyclad

Sorry it has been so long since you received my last transmission, 

Meanwhile I've studied them - learned about their strange condition. 

Now I think I understand why they live in such confusion, 

Sadly they'll never change - I have come to this conclusion... 

Planet Earth is great to visit - It's great to visit 

(but you wouldn't want to live there.) 

I am the mariner who navigates seas celestial, 

Astronaut ambassador sent to foreign shores terrestrial. 

Now with hindsight I admit I don't admire the humans' lot, 

Frail bodies - fragile, I'll equipped, their lives are hard (but they are not). 

Planet Earth is great to visit - It's great to visit 

(but you wouldn't want to live there.)

And when you know the ways of men 

Then you can only pity them, 

Every day a raging storm - 

Castaway in a carbon based life form. 

I've wandered far (I've wondered hard) and have one source of comfort only - 

When I share my thoughts with you mortality is not so lonely. 

Countless starts between us - myriad the things I miss, 

I say farewell and think of home, the static drowns my parting kiss. 

Planet Earth is great to visit - It's great to visit 

(but you wouldn't want to live there.) 

And as your signal slowly wanes - 

The fears return (my growing pains), 

Here it is for what it's worth - 

Yet another postcard from planet Earth. 

Now with hindsight I admit I don't admire the humans' lot, 

Frial bodies - I'll equipped, their lives are hard (but they are not).

Every day a raging storm - 

Castaway in a carbon based life form. 

Planet Earth is great to visit - It's great to visit
