Once You Get to Know Us
On the far side of the Universe
There's a little sphere we call the Earth
It's a undiscovered paradise
You'll love it here, people are nice
We're far from perfect
We spend a lot of time
Inventing ways to kill each other
Still, we think you'll find a lot to love
Once you get to know us
We have everything you'll ever need
The Internet, daytime TV
We used to have these things called trees
But who needs them? Not you and me
We've made mistakes and
Many of them are sadly irreversible
Still, we think you'll find a lot to love
Once you get to know us
If you lined up all the broken hearts on Earth
They'd form a trail of bread crumbs through the stars
Guiding you in your spaceship
And provided that you're not too soft and tasty
Your arrival might just be the start of a beautiful friendship
We're far from perfect
And some of us are genocidal maniacs
Still, we think you'll find a lot to love
Once you get to know us
Once you get to know us
Once you get to know us
Not all that bad
Once you get to know us
There's a little sphere we call the Earth
It's a undiscovered paradise
You'll love it here, people are nice
We're far from perfect
We spend a lot of time
Inventing ways to kill each other
Still, we think you'll find a lot to love
Once you get to know us
We have everything you'll ever need
The Internet, daytime TV
We used to have these things called trees
But who needs them? Not you and me
We've made mistakes and
Many of them are sadly irreversible
Still, we think you'll find a lot to love
Once you get to know us
If you lined up all the broken hearts on Earth
They'd form a trail of bread crumbs through the stars
Guiding you in your spaceship
And provided that you're not too soft and tasty
Your arrival might just be the start of a beautiful friendship
We're far from perfect
And some of us are genocidal maniacs
Still, we think you'll find a lot to love
Once you get to know us
Once you get to know us
Once you get to know us
Not all that bad
Once you get to know us
