Tankard

Tankard - Mess In The West lyrics

rate me

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

"FUCK 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]
