| Walkin' 'cross the desert, it ain’t no fun
|
| To hide in the daytime in too much sun
|
| Lefty says, ‽We'll cross at night time
|
| Like my people always have to
|
| Keep moving, quit nagging, walked or runâ€
|
| I asked Lefty, ‽Why we bring so much, chief?â€
|
| ‽Coyotes, buddy, just you wait and see
|
| Coyotes eat anything, buddy, long as he’s free
|
| ‽Suppose they want little something extra, Lefty
|
| Might be you and might be meâ€
|
| Well, the desert’s dark
|
| And the desert’s deep, stars everywhere
|
| Something like you’ve never seen
|
| Sittin' in your easy chair
|
| Watch out, Lefty, something strange is comin' down
|
| Look out, it’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s a fire tincan
|
| Got those coyotes on the run
|
| Out steps a green dog as green as he can be
|
| Or maybe she 'cause when they’re wearing space suits
|
| You can’t tell 'cause you can’t see
|
| In my world to the purple my circle
|
| And I to blame
|
| A red cat is really something new
|
| I’m so far from home
|
| Can you tell me what should I do?
|
| Do you think there is room for me
|
| In this strange land
|
| I’m sorry I scared your friends
|
| I write poetry
|
| Did you struck me? |
| How about me?
|
| In my world everyone is a fraud
|
| Shaking hands, saying, ‽How do you do?â€
|
| Guess you’ve noticed we all look the same, it’s such haste
|
| I’d rather take a chance here with you
|
| ‽They triedâ€, says Lefty
|
| ‽Let's see how fast this crate can fly
|
| Her va-va-voom says Lefty
|
| Watch the coyotes scatter
|
| And watch the towns go streaking by
|
| Kingman, Barstool, San Bernardino
|
| Just won’t do
|
| Go West, you green dog
|
| Hollywood, the place for you
|
| Green dog, green dog, green dog
|
| You’re so red, so red |
