Walkin' 'cross the desert, it ain't no fun
To hide in the daytime in too much sun
Lefty says, ââ¬Â½We'll cross at night time
Like my people always have to
Keep moving, quit nagging, walked or runââ¬Â
I asked Lefty, ââ¬Â½Why we bring so much, chief?ââ¬Â
ââ¬Â½Coyotes, buddy, just you wait and see
Coyotes eat anything, buddy, long as he's free
ââ¬Â½Suppose they want little something extra, Lefty
Might be you and might be meââ¬Â
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, ââ¬Â½How do you do?ââ¬Â
Guess you've noticed we all look the same, it's such haste
I'd rather take a chance here with you
ââ¬Â½They triedââ¬Â, says Lefty
ââ¬Â½Let'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
