Barenaked Ladies ~ The Ballad Of Gordon


There was darkness, there was light, There was day and there was night, There was wrong and there was right... And then there was me. You didn't even know me, but you treated me like dirt. (and then there was me) You didn't even know me, but you called me a jerk. (and then there was me) I'm from a planet near a star You wouldn't know (it's very far). The're calling me the man from mars And i think they're insulting me. They tried to take my special suit. (insulting me) (insulting me) Put your hands up or i'll shoot! i don't have hands... Across the galaxy i flew, Heard a peaceful message sent by you. Now i find you're judged by color and size. I can't believe what you call my... I'se the guy who sails the sky, but i think i'd like to live Here. I'd like to share your mountains, share your trees, and share Your rivers. I've never seen so many people of so many colors. I'd like to think that someday maybe i could call you brothers. (and then there was we) I'd like to learn about your pizza and your weather, (and then there was we) Then we could learn about how beings live together. (and then there was we) So if you're thinking about being a spaceman, It don't matter if you're black or white Or purple or blue or green or red Or yellow with polka dots on your head Or made of snow or made of wheat Or looking like something that's kind of a treat. I like your hat... (fade) more free lyrics

There was darkness, there was light,
There was day and there was night,
There was wrong and there was right...
And then there was me.

You didn't even know me, but you treated me like dirt.
(and then there was me)
You didn't even know me, but you called me a jerk.
(and then there was me)

I'm from a planet near a star
You wouldn't know (it's very far).
The're calling me the man from mars
And i think they're insulting me.

They tried to take my special suit.
(insulting me)
(insulting me)
Put your hands up or i'll shoot! i don't have hands...

Across the galaxy i flew,
Heard a peaceful message sent by you.
Now i find you're judged by color and size.
I can't believe what you call my...

I'se the guy who sails the sky, but i think i'd like to live
Here.
I'd like to share your mountains, share your trees, and share
Your rivers.
I've never seen so many people of so many colors.
I'd like to think that someday maybe i could call you brothers.

(and then there was we)
I'd like to learn about your pizza and your weather,
(and then there was we)
Then we could learn about how beings live together.
(and then there was we)

So if you're thinking about being a spaceman,
It don't matter if you're black or white
Or purple or blue or green or red
Or yellow with polka dots on your head
Or made of snow or made of wheat
Or looking like something that's kind of a treat.

I like your hat... (fade)

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
