'There must be some way outta here,'
Says the Arbiter to the Chief.
'There's too much confusion,
I don't know who to believe.'
'Brutes and fools they kill my kind,
Prophets search for your earth.
None of them along the line,
Know what any of it is worth.'
'No reason to get excited,'
The Chief he kindly spoke.
'There are many here among us,
Who feel the Covenant is but a joke.'
'But you and I we've been through that,
And stupidity is not our fate.
So let us not talk falsely now,
Truth's end will not wait.'
All along Earth's watchtowers,
Vigilant eyes kept a view.
While little ships came and went,
And big guns too.
Outside in the distance,
A loud klaxxon did growl.
A ship was fast approaching,
The wind began to howl.
Adapted from Bob Dylan's All Along The Watchtower.
