Close Encounter - Lyrics - Tankard

A tankard is a form of drinkware consisting of a large, roughly cylindrical, drinking cup with a single handle. Tankards are usually made of silver, pewter, or glass, but can be made of other materials, for example wood, ceramic or leather. A tankard may have a hinged lid, and tankards featuring glass bottoms are also fairly common. Tankards are shaped and used similarly to beer steins.

Picture this: light in the sky I'm standing on a hill Not a star, strange kind of glow Coming down not a mile away Has it happened? Can it be real? No reason to fear Keep it secret, nobody knows It's our U.F.O. I see lights, down by the woods Debris and molten steel Uniforms barking commands Tried to run, but they saw me first [Chorus:] Turn away, turn away Nothing but fear and hate Is waiting here for you Turn away, turn away This is no place to stay Dissection is your fate Turn away, turn away Nothing but fear and hate Is waiting here for you I was seized, locked in a truck And in there, bless my soul Saw two guys, wounded, it seemed Visitors from another world Has it happened... Took us to underground labs In chains like prisoners They looked with questioning eyes Did they know we were facing death [Chorus] Just like rats they tested them Subjected them to pain Wanted their technology Didn't care for their desperate pleas They were murdered, just like the rest: "Security risk" I will follow, I only hope This story will blow
