Weather Balloons? ? ? ? for friend Thad
I’m just an ordinary guy
who’d like to know the reason why?
The powers that be resort to lies
about the strangers in our skies.
Why do they think they can conceal
what people see with their own eyes
and try to make out they aren’t real.
They wonder why no one complies.
Some may be real and some are not.
Illusions caused by tricks of light
Which will account for quite a lot.
I think that people have the right..
To be allowed to speculate
on what these U.F.Os may be
Not as they have been up to date
Bamboozled systematically.
By governments who all deny
that something strange is going on.
When questioned give the stock reply.
You are mistaken there are none.
Perhaps they’re seeking to prevent
the populace from panicking.
But being cynical I suspect
that they are only dithering.
Because they don’t know what to do.
It’s typical of governments
when they are faced by something new.
The truth leaks out by increments.
A trained observer does not lie
about the things that he has seen.
Strange lights manoeuvring in the sky.
and wonders what they might have been.
Though governments try to suppress
by any means they can conceive.
The right of people to express
what they have seen, what they believe.
I’m just an ordinary guy
I am no expert scientist
but I can see no reason why.
Alien races can’t exist.
