I'm an alien from another sphere. The thing I like about the earth is the range
|
of colors. Fantastic to mundane. Brilliant to dull. As I was penetrating the
|
ozone, I perchanced to notice the orange peel-like
|
quality of the light playing upon the... the ocean. I gotta go right now;
|
someone is videotaping me in my spaceship.
|
|
All around a water tank
|
Just a-waitin' for a train
|
A thousand miles away from home
|
Just a-waitin' for'n the rain
|
I walked up to a breakman
|
Just to give him a line of talk
|
He said, "If you got money,
|
I'll see that you don't walk."
|
"I haven't got a nickel;
|
Not a penny for to show."
|
"Get off, get off, you railroad bum!"
|
And he slammed the boxcar door
|
They let me off in Texas
|
A state I dearly love
|
