Ash - Day Of The Triffids Lyrics
In the mid-day heat I gave a sighCruisin through the garden district, I was out of my mindThe star of indias in my hotel roomIn a briefcase combination: 3, 2, 1 (which only I know)And Ive just seen my mentor, dr. noCalifornia sun is on the radio, lets goI just wanna reach the radio starIts a satellite off venus and it aint too farI was shooting up in my hotel roomWhen the phone started ringing - oh noIt was dr. no, he gave the passwordHe said, hey, man, havent you heard? and I said nothe worlds been invaded by alien life formsMeet me at the airport, weve got to get out - lets goI ran to the window and looked out, there were dead people lying all over the streets.Within two minutes I had all my stuff together.I jumped in my car and was speeding down the highway past all the deserted cars.In five minutes I was at the airport but there at the gates I saw what I suppose was one of these alien life forms.I pulled my bazooka out of its bag in the back of the car and blew it to hell.As arrange dr. no was waiting for me in the terminal.We got in his private jet plane and took off, two hours later landing in zaire, where we met up with fu manchu, hannibal lecter, the hooded claw and all the rest of the gang.We boarded the rocket and soon we were shooting off for the stars and as we approached the space station I looked down and observed the earth, the us air force being annihilated and swarms of nuclear weapons soaring through the stratosphere destroying the earth - and I swear to God I laughed.
