Get down get down

They broke the code

Here's what they found

Get down get down

It seems this message had been

Traveling through the cosmos

For a hundred thousand years

The alarms went off and the teletype came to life

They read it said

"Get down get down"

Nobody moved or made a sound

Get down get down

They looked around

They understood that

Everything that they had known

Would need to be forgotten

And that they would have to

Start from the beginning again

And the only thing that mattered now

Is that everybody

Get down get down

We interrupt this broadcast

To bring you a special news bulletin

Stop whatever it is that you're doing

This is an emergency

Go down stay down

The only thing that matters now

Get down get down

Just as we were hearing the news

The announcer's voice was cut off

The signal went dead

And it cut to a different feed

A metallic and alien voice began speaking

Get down get down

I'm telling you for your own good

Right now you should

Get down get down

I'm telling you for your own good

Right now you should

The only thing that matters now

Get down get down

Get down get down
