Once You Get To Know Us Songtext
von Jeremy Messersmith

On the far side of the Universe
There′s a little sphere we call the Earth
It's a undiscovered paradise
You′ll love it here, people are nice

We're far from perfect
We spend a lot of time
Inventing ways to kill each other
Still, we think you'll find a lot to love
Once you get to know us

We have everything you′ll ever need
The Internet, daytime TV
We used to have these things called trees
But who needs them? Not you and me


We′ve made mistakes and
Many of them are sadly irreversible
Still, we think you'll find a lot to love
Once you get to know us

If you lined up all the broken hearts on Earth
They′d form a trail of bread crumbs through the stars
Guiding you in your spaceship
And provided that you're not too soft and tasty
Your arrival might just be the start of a beautiful friendship

We′re far from perfect
And some of us are genocidal maniacs
Still, we think you'll find a lot to love
Once you get to know us

Once you get to know us
Once you get to know us
Not all that bad
Once you get to know us
