Kenneth Arnold, Flying Saucer Man

by Bufo Calvin

(sung to the tune of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band)

Forty-seven years ago today
Kenneth Arnold taught the world to say
"There's a flying saucer in the air"
And it gave the people quite a scare
Now here's another term you know
Today we just say U.F.O

Kenneth Arnold, Flying Saucer Ma-an!

What's in the sky,
Lighted up, flying by?
Could it be a real alien craft?
Perhaps it's a star or lights from a car
Or maybe I'm just going daft...

Oh, it's giving me the ontological bends
Oh, I hate it when a paradigm ends

Could it beeee a delusion?
I just know there's something there
Or an optical illusion?
I'm getting to the point I don't care

Oh, this is one of those long-lasting trends
Mm, I don't know just what message it sends
Message it sennnnnds!
