You Can't Blame Me
In this song you have to imagine the aliens have arrived and are in orbit around our planet. They've come to find out whether we're ready to be admitted into the Galactic Federation. Shortly after they arrive, they are met my a fleet of atomic missiles which they easily vaporise. They can't understand why they have been attacked without provocation. When they look down at the planet and see the way the human race conducts itself, they are even more confused. They wonder whether the inhabitants of the planet will one day represent a threat to the rest of the Galaxy. If so, the planet and all life on it will have to be destroyed.
So, in true Star Trek tradition they beam up a human being selected at random to explain what's going on. You now have to imagine that you are the victim and all you can think of to say is "You Can't Blame Me"
Chorus
You can't blame me, I wouldn't do that
You can't blame me, I wouldn't do that at all
You can't blame me, I wasn't even there
And anyway I had my face turned to the wall
Was it you who cowered in the alley
As our spaceship came flying through the sky?
Was it you who fired the missiles at us?
If it was then you are going to die
chorus
Was it you who chopped down all the forests,
That had taken a millennia to grow?
Was it you who murdered in the oceans,
And clubbed the seals to death in the blood stained snow?
chorus
Was it you who cheered the departing armies
As they proudly marched off to the war?
Was it you who raged against appeasement?
You didn't even know what they were fighting for
chorus
Was it you who built the doomsday weapons?
Did you want the whole world at your command?
Was it you who filled our hearts with anger?
If it was you must make us understand
chorus
But you are the one, the one who we have chosen
You are the one with the whole world in your hand
Your are the one who with logic and with reason
Must explain all the things which we can't understand
chorus
Well you have had your chance and now your world is ended
As are the lies which come spilling from your tongue
We know you were there, because it was where we found you
You're as much to blame as anyone.
