Cover art for They're Not Here, They're Not Coming lyrics by Don Henley

The message of this song is the same as many other Henley-songs: Stop whining about your "problems" and stop expecting anyone to come and make your life a dream. Get over it and move on.

The two first verses is referring to "the Roosevelt Incident". It's a little kick in the side to those UFO-fanatics who are only waiting for the alians to arrive, while they actually should be more worrying about the situation here on earth. and their own lives.

That's atleast my 2 cent.
