Gamma Ray

Trying to hold hold out for now
But with these ice caps melting down
With the transistor sound
And my Chevrolet terraplane going 'round 'round 'round

Come a little gamma ray
Standing in a hurricane
Your brains are bored
Like a refugee
From the houses burning
And the heatwave's calling your name

She's got on a cactus crown
With a dot dot dot on her brow
And she speaks inside cloud
With the cavalry turning around

Hit me like a gamma ray
Standing in a hurricane
And I'm pulling out thorns
Smokestack lightning out my window
I want to know what I've lost today

Come a little gamma ray
Standing in a hurricane
When your body's bored
Like a refugee
From the houses burning
And the backbiters calling your name
