All Alone

[Verse 1] Once upon a time they sent a rocket to the moon With scientific instruments to test conditions there But just before they closed the door, one scientist expelled a germ That accidentally found its way aboard and stowed away For three years, it remained undetected on the moon It was the only living creature there [Chorus] "I'm all alone, I'm all alone Behold the mystery that is me" [Verse 2] Then one day the scientists recovered all their gear Excited by the prospect of unearthly things inside They found, to their astonishment, a living thing within It seemed to bear good tidings from somewhere in outer space [Chorus] "You're not alone, you're not alone Behold the mystery that is me" [Verse 3] Soon they figured out the heinous error they had made And now the earthly germ had something else it seemed to say [Chorus] "We're all alone, we're all alone Behold the mystery, behold the mystery"
