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 perchance to notice the orange peel-like quality of the light playing upon this... the ocean. I gotta go right now. Someone is videotaping me in my spaceship.
All around a water tank
Just a-waiting for a train
A thousand miles away from home
Just a-waiting for 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
The moon the stars above me
And what else
