The Secret of Life
Unveiling Life's Cosmic Secrets Through The Dead Milkmen's Melody
Lyrics
I saw a cigar shaped flying ship
I witnessed a cigar-shaped flying ship.
It landed outside on my lawn
The ship landed on my lawn.
You poked your head out of a door
You emerged from a door on the ship.
And said, "Hurry up get on."
You urged me to quickly get on the ship.
I've never seen the sight before
I've never encountered such a sight before.
The world became a shrinking ball
The world seemed to contract or diminish.
I asked where you were taking me
I inquired about our destination.
You said, "Shut up and you will see."
You instructed me to be quiet and observe.
CHORUS
< strong > CHORUS
Waves of time they rock us back and forth
The passage of time has a rocking effect on us.
There's no telling if we'll stay on course
Uncertainty exists about staying on the right path.
We raced across the galaxy
We raced through the galaxy.
Away from all our ugliness
We left behind the unpleasant aspects of life.
I felt beautiful and free
I felt a sense of beauty and freedom.
Out where the devil can't exist
We ventured where negativity cannot exist.
I felt a burst of energy
I experienced a surge of energy.
Hot white light poured from your eyes
Bright light emanated from your eyes.
We sped into infinity
We accelerated towards infinity.
I felt beautiful and free
I felt a profound sense of beauty and freedom.
CHORUS
< strong > CHORUS
Now I'm no longer in my life
I am no longer part of my previous life.
I've left all my friends behind
I left my friends behind.
Now letters don't get past my door
Letters no longer reach me.
I can't really read them anymore
I can't read them anymore.
You took me to another world
You transported me to a different world.
Where time ceases to hold sway
Time loses its influence in this place.
And computers contain the missing key
Computers hold the key to life's mysteries.
To life's most sacred mystery
The secret of life is no secret at all
The true secret of life is not a secret.
For secrets hold death and
Secrets lead to death, and lies create barriers.
Lies only build walls
