about

This song is about the true story of my dad seeing UFO'S on December 11th, 1982.

lyrics

Intro (Joe Murnan)
The image will be seared into my brain for the rest of my living days. As I walked by the patio door, all I thought was… two moons? There isn’t a starry night that goes by that I don’t think about it.

Verse 1 (Big Burn)
December 11th 1982
I'll remember that day till I rest in my tomb
an insignificant Saturday Night
Turned into the day that changed my life
It was a frigid 18 degrees
so I stayed in turned on the TV screen
to a scary movie about Siamese Twins
little did I know real horror would begin
Went to the fridge to grab a refreshment
gazed out and saw two fluorescent
objects floating in the sky
an image forever seared in my mind
My first thought was how is there two moons?
I soon realized they're like Audrey II (Feed me)
Fear coursed through my veins I came to grips
I had something from outer space in my midst

Chorus 2x
December 11th, 1982
I saw two fuchsia objects shaped like the moon
where they came from, guess we'll never know
But I can tell you that we're not alone

Verse 2 (Big Burn)
Holy shit what am I to do next?
I need to calm down take a real deep breath
they'll think you're crazy unless you get a witness
so I had to call my neighbor Phyllis
Why the hell are you calling at this hour?
because I've had a close encounter
of the first Kind now it's time to blow your mind
hurry on outside and look in the sky
Joe you're crazy I didn't see shit!
Ted just thinks you're on a acid trip
check one more time it's right above your house
drop the ice cream get your fat ass off the couch
she went outdoors came back to phone
her inflection told me she's white as a ghost
I just saw it that's all she could say
then she hung up the phone in utter dismay

Chorus 2x

Bridge (Big Burn)
How am I spose to protect my family?
what's a gun gonna do besides make them angry
My life started to flash before my eyes
is tonight gonna be the night that I die?
what in God's green earth do they want?
to abduct and experiment on us?
i dont know, but I need to make a plan
joe think how do I get out of this jam

Verse 3 (Big Burn)
call the cops maybe they can help me
Hello what is it that you need
there's UFOS above my property
please come out here and bring the artillery
ohh those they're just helicopters
rustling cattle in the pastures
well, the cops weren't gonna help
i'm gonna have to deal with this myself
all of sudden they met in the sky
and split apart at the speed of light
the whole sky lit up like it was daytime
the craziest thing i'd seen in my life
lucky turn of events I guess you could say
I wonder if they'll ever come back to pay
a visit with any unfinished business
now I know we must survive in coexistence

Chorus 2x

Outro (Joe Murnan)
There was two of them, and they were not from this planet.
