[Verse 1]
Selfless maiden slip by my side
Uttering terms about a turning tide
Slowly furnishing my continuous ride with
Twirling sanitary bits of hide
Hair quite long and lavender-dyed
Split nostrils hovering open wide
Velvet breasts with crimson legs astride
Issuing words about some helpless glide
Asking if I will ever provide
Transparent radiation

[Verse 2]
My liquid head open to the rain
I waltz through a bushel and a peck of grain
Hearing in my ear a hurricane and
Speaking to the man about a train
Touch with my hand an aeroplane
Eyes wide open on the coast of Maine
Red signs outside which I contain
Transparent radiation

[Verse 3]
Sudden sacrifice for not one cent
Tables bearing the fruits of Lent
Styrofoam people quite violent
Clear light blowing right out of my tent
Expert men not knowing what they meant
Eating babies for nourishment
A funny bird with forehead bent
Ozone over our continent
Slogans tell me that I can rent
Transparent radiation
