TANKARD lyrics : "Close Encounter"

[Music: A. Katzmann]
[Lyrics: T.Clark, A.Bulgaropulos, A.Geremia]


Picture this: light in the sky
I'm standing on a hill


Not a star, strange kind of glow
Coming down not a mile away


Has it happened? Can it be real?
No reason to fear
Keep it secret, nobody knows

It's our U.F.O.

I see lights, down by the woods

Debris and molten steel
Uniforms barking commands
Tried to run,

but they saw me first

[Chorus:]

Turn away, turn away
Nothing but fear and hate
Is waiting here for you


Turn away, turn away
This is no place to stay

Dissection is your fate

Turn away, turn away

Nothing but fear and hate
Is waiting here for you


I was seized, locked in a truck
And in there, bless my soul
Saw two guys,

wounded, it seemed
Visitors from another world


Has it happened...

Took us to underground labs

In chains like prisoners
They looked with questioning eyes
Did they know we were facing death


[Chorus]


Just like rats they tested them
Subjected them to pain
Wanted their technology

Didn't care for their desperate pleas

They were murdered,

just like the rest:
"Security risk"
I will follow, I only hope

This story will blow
