Lyrics:

Last night a ship crashed in my backyard, and out stepped an Alien, I asked "Are you injured".
She said "I'm fine but my warp drive is busted, and it'll be a while before I can fix it"
She doesn't understand why we don't lend a hand and she just cannot see why we take such pleasure in each other's misery.
I brought her in, made her a cup of tea she said "what's that" I said "it's a TV".
I showed her some try out for some tallent show, then some news and world's funniest videos.
She said "but those people were crying, some were hurt some were even dying" She said "is there not enough food on your planet"
I said "there is but only some people can have it"

I saw a tear fall from her eye, she put hands on her face and began to cry "I've travelled the galaxy and never seen so much crime and corruption it's hard to believe."
"Don't they see that it doesn't make sense to gain more for yourself at anothers expense, they just consume and destroy, where's the love and where's the joy"
"I'm sorry but I have to go fix my ship" She whispered to me with a tremble in her lip. "Thanks for the tea and the hospitality but your world is no place for me."

Rohan.
