lonely electric cactus of the western hills
you dont know why
they left you out in nevada on the dusty ground
they tied you up to a feather that was 10 ft high
you dont know why
they sailed you off in a whirlwind through the setting sun
and you'll probably never get back home
home
you'll probably never get back
home
silent in the western sky
up above the hills so dry
flyin with the tumbleweeds that left the ground
and they look so nice and friendly
now you dont know what to do or say
drifting through this lonely day
you see the empty ground below you
shrinkin slowly out of sight...
you floated over the mountains and the western plains
you dont know how
you finally there in nebraska made it to the ground
you landed soft in a cornfield when the sun was low
and you dont know
how you ended up in a tunnel where you slept for days
and you'll probably never get back home
home
you'll probably never get back home
silent in the western sky
(etc)
na, na n'na na na na etc
now you scream through the empty sky
for anyone who can hear your cry
scream all the emptiness away
(4x)
away, away, away, yeah
(cello magic)
