Human Sounds

The one thing we got right

Hi, welcome, I can't believe my eyes

Surreal, so crazy, but a wonderful surprise

You're here, you're real, the science was sound

In wide-eyed wonder you look around

Oh there's so much to ask and so much to tell, I don't know where to start

What ever can I cram in before you must depart

But wait, do you understand me, do you speak my tongue?

Communication was the hope to which I'd clung

No matter, there is one thing that you don't need to understand

To feel is enough, when I play you a song from my favourite band

This is the one thing humans got right, music, and the way it transcends

Boundaries and languages, and brings us together as friends

So here's some rhythm and blues, to sooth your soul

A little smooth jazz if romance is your goal

Some good ol' country to get those feet tapping

Old school hip hop will even get you rapping

A little pop to lift your mood

And a little bit of disco will have you dancing in no time, my dude

You have to leave, there's so much more but if I had one thing to show

These tunes that unify us was the right way to go

I hope you return and bring your friends so they can feel it too

We don't need words, music's enough, I promise you its true

See you soon new pal, and next time we explore

All the things I love to eat the most, oh there's so much more on Earth you're sure to adore!
