[Verse 1]
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 s- the ocean
I gotta go right now; someone is videotaping me in my spaceship
[Verse 2]
All around, a water tank
Just a-waiting for a train
A thousand miles away from home
Just a-waiting for'n the rain
I walked up to a break-man
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
The moon, the stars above me… And what else?
