"It Came Out Of The Sky" lyrics

It Came Out Of The Sky

Oh, it came out of the sky
Landed just a little south of Moline
Jody fell out of his tractor
Couldn't believe what he seen
Laid on the ground and shook
Fearing for his life
Then he ran all the way to town screaming
"It came out of the sky"

Well, a crowd gathered around
And a scientist said it was marsh gas
Spiro came and made a speech
About raising the Mars tax
The Vatican said, "Woe, the Lord has come"
Hollywood rushed out an epic film
And Ronnie the Popular said
It was a communist plot

Oh, the newspapers came
And made Jody a national hero
Walter and Eric said
They'd put him on a network TV show
The White House said
"Put the thing in the Blue Room"
The Vatican said
"No, it belongs to Rome"
And Jody said, "It's mine
But you can have it for seventeen million"

Oh, it came out of the sky
Landed just a little south of Moline
Jody fell out of his tractor
Couldn't believe what he seen
Laid on the ground a shaking
Fearing for his life
Then he ran all the way to town screaming
"It came out of the sky"
