With All The Room In Outer Space

With All The Room In Outer Space

With all the room in outer space

It stands to reason there must be

Another planet with a race

Of mankind in our galaxy.

The problem is that since we can’t

Get on with one another here

I can’t see why it is you’d want

To meet more in the stratosphere.

Nobody has to go that far

Out of their ordinary way

To find out what the answers are

To our problems here today.

And that’s why it seems silly to

Depend upon a telescope

And speculate about the view

In order to inspire hope.
