Some Kind of Disinformation Project
So, then we came with a yet more elaborate theory
Which I somewhat prefer
The only country that has really taken an interest in these crop circles other than the English themselves
Are the Japanese
This has gotten immense coverage in Japan in the popular press
When you go to these crop circles
The number of Japanesе is astonishing
METI, which is the Ministry of Trade and Industry is obviously carrying on
A clandestinе project in the study of semiotics
In the study of the Western mind and how it relates to the manipulation of certain symbols
Because they are in charge of marketing and advertising
And creating a marketing psychology in Japan
So, what I think we're dealing with here is a ultra-clandestine team of ninja stem snappers
Who pose as Japanese tourists, and television crews, and so forth, and then
At the drop of a hat, can flash into the zen stem-snapping mode
Create these things, and the press that it generates, and the discussion
Provides a very deep index into the English mind
Notice how eerily appealing to the English mind this is
And it's possible that you can extend this
To the cattle mutilations of a few years ago in the Midwest
The relationship cattle mutilations in the lonely Western Prairie
Under a crescent moon, the relationship of that image
To the American mystique of the lonesome cowboy, and the Gunfight at the OK Corral
And all that
Is eerily similar to the relationship of the English mind to its earth mysteries
Out there on the Salisbury Plain
It's a human agency, and therefore it's some kind of a disinformation project
They were shocked that my lack of sensitivity to the emerging messages from the telluric deaths of the suffering earth
Hey, maybe it's happening
But, you know, I was raised in the tradition of Occam's razor which says
Hypotheses should not be multiplied without necessity
And I saw no necessity of reaching out to them
I should make it clear, you know
I don't believe this stuff
I don't believe this stuff
I - I - I don't believe this stuff
