I’m a fan of sci-fi like many people are
A fan of the extraordinary and bizarre
I like to hear tales of the unexplained
Such as when frogs fell when it rained
I like to hear mysterious yarns or tales
A ghastly Halloween story never fails
Although I enjoy the stories very much
I do not believe them to be true as such
The clue is in the name of science fiction
If it’s not a fact then it’s a contradiction
I have never believed in alien abduction
Or even spontaneous human combustion
Crop circles made by little green men
Or extraterrestrial phoning home again
Some people believe in dousing for water
Mind readers or the foreign spoon bender
Palm reading is for fair ground sideshows
Who believes in fortune telling god knows
There is no Big Foot or Loch Ness monsters
No abominable snowman in the Himalayas
No time travel as suggested by HG Wells
Telekinetic’s only happens in King Novels
There are no poltergeists or apparitions
No evil spectre’s or phantom visitations
Mediums are nothing more than charlatans
Conjuring up their ectoplasmic apparitions
Giving only vagueness about Uncle Fred
In their charade at contacting the dead
And folklore is a euphemism for made up
No imps or sprites or a woodland elf cup
No Irish leprechauns or even garden fairies
No woodland folk or tiny Cornish pixies
Nor do I believe in malevolent goblins
Or hob’s and trolls and cheeky gremlins
Enjoying myths and legends of our time
Or enjoying science fiction is not a crime
But you should retain a grip on reality
To take it too seriously would be a pity
The force is only with you in the movie
If you think its true, you’re sad or lonely
Aliens don’t inhabit our environments
Kidnapping victims for their experiments
Too much belief in them you should avoid
They’re not here for you you’re paranoid
