about

When the starpeople finally come and judge us (whether we're around or not) I expect they will do so like we judge the various old civilizations we've uncovered...replete with the sounds of stressed out academics, well meaning bureaucrats, and amateur speculators shouting their conclusions toward each other into the void

lyrics

We have
code names
to protect
the innocent
carcinogeneration

cause when they go too far
they'll suffer dim frustration
like wishing on a star

when we say their names
they'll wear dark glasses
they'll say we came
from a hole up in the sky
they''ll block us out
with their dark glasses
'cause who would want
to die from a little light

Ultraviolet
Ultraviolet
Ultraviolent

They call me infrared

We have
code names
to prevent
the decadent
recalcitrance
of nations

'cause when they go to far
they'll bathe in radiation
become a newborn star

When we say their names
we'll wear dark glasses
we'll say they came
from a hole up in the sky
we'll block them out
with their dark glasses
'cause who would want
to die from a little light

Ultraviolet
Ultraviolet
Ultraviolent

They call me,
they call me infrared
