They call it the

Final frontier

Don't look at me

I'm staying here

Who wants to go

Boldy, or not

Into deep space

No telling what

Is waiting there

For us to surf

Without invite

Onto their turf

Technology

They'd have in spades

While we're still in

The shuttle age

One laser blast

And we'd be dust

And then they'd take

The earth from us

Why aggravate

The atmosphere

If they're out there

They know we're here

Think about it

For oh so long

They've studied us

I may be wrong

But don't you think

That if that's true

They've got us pegged

So what's the use

Trying to get

The upper hand

By exploring

That brave new land

If they have now

And have had the

Knowledge needed

To sail the sea

Of outerspace

For quite some time

Don't you think we're

Sp far behind

That we'll never

Meet or surpass

Their vast knowledge

So no, I'll pass

If they come here

I'll stand my ground

Defend my home

And won't back down

But if you think

I'm going to

Look for trouble

Here's news for you

If they're out there

They're welcome to

The galaxy

And if I knew

Without a dobt

That they were real

It wouldn't change

The way I feel

Outerspace is

Just not for me

I'll stay right here

Because, you see

The very thought

Of trav'ling space

Just drains the blood

Right from my face

No starfleet ship

Will ever be

Even close to

Convincing me

Of a true need

To map the stars

Or settle on

The planet Mars

The aliens

If they exist

Don't bother us

So why insist

On invading

Their neighborhood

It couldn't come

To any good

So let's just leave

Things as they are

We keep the earth

They get the stars
