Tankard - Mess In The West lyrics

[Music: F.Thorwarth] [Lyrics: T.Clark, A.Bulgaropulos, A.Geremia] Out in the west, where the coyotes rest Lives Ed on a dusty little ranch 400 miles from anything that smiles Just snakes, tumbleweed, and countro tapes Barrels in an old mine, waiting for the right time Seepage into waterways and wells "Cactus got a red head and my chicken all dead, I got green spots itchin' me like hell" [Chorus:] High life in the desert wasteland There's a big mess in the west Dioxin or heavy metal It's a big mess in the west Dump now you'll be payin' later For the big mess in the west "fu*k Inc., preaches ecology" Boss smiles, holding up recycled cup But in the night, when evil's out of site His waste goes on west and disappears Meanwhile in the distance, Ed is kinda' pissed and All his cows are growing funny horns Ed is losing his hair, and he's full of despair "Christ Almighty, everything is wrong!" [Chorus] Out in the west, where the coyotes rest Lived Ed on a dusty little ranch 400 miles from anything that smiles Just snakes, tumbleweed, and country tapes Ed was taken east and noone ever missed him Had no kids, no relatives, no wife Then he was dissected, data were corrected But they won't be published on hour life [Chorus]
