Venus Ambassador Lyrics

"Venus Ambassador, give us a sign
Can this really be the borderline?
Venus Ambassador, is this end?
Are you ever coming back again?"
Stranded
At the station
On his way to the United Nations
Buoyancy depleting
Would he make it to the meeting?

When outside in the night sky
By the red light and the do-or-die sign
A fluttering of blue!
Unit Seven made their move
Caught him in the groove, signed the papers
No escaping from the mess they're making

Venus Ambassador's alright
Venus Ambassador's alright
From out of the sky to the capitol of the State
Venus Ambassador's alright
Venus Ambassador's alright
He's an innocent man in the wink of an evil fate
Passing out the hours
In the courtroom of a world gone sour
Judge says: "He's a menace, this ambassador from Venice"

"Venus!" says the hero
In a language made of ones and zeroes
Laughter and dismay, his sympathizers fade away
The passion leaves the play
To walk a plank made by a cruel company of fools

Venus Ambassador's alright
Venus Ambassador's alright
It's the trial of year and he hasn't a tear to waste
Venus Ambassador's alright
Venus Ambassador's alright
He wired to his crew back on Blue-Planet-Two too late
"Venus Ambassador, you have been sentenced to death
For being yourself!"

"Venus Ambassador, give us a sign
Can this really be the borderline
Venus Ambassador, is this end - are you ever coming back again?

Venus Ambassador, it's getting late
The crowd is growing at the killing gate
Venus Ambassador, we'll set you free
But if you won't agree to be, we'll meet you at infinity."
