Like a Bullet

The car wouldn't start And I had to walk I headed out Arrow toward the Western Rock And I looked through the fence Heavy machinery shining in the moonlight And a huge yellow tractor caught my eye I heard the wheels crunch the gravel, I was feeling alright And the tractor spoke In drawn out syllables The tractor sang In long full notes I'm getting out of here Coming to you like a bullet I'm getting out of here Coming to you like a bullet You gave me that liquid laugh When I got home As I tried to describe the bright yellow body and the shining chrome come alive I knew you'd laugh But that particular tone of yours just cuts me in half You don't know what it's like to hear a big dumb machine spell out the details of your life And the tractor spoke to me In drawn out syllables The tractor sang In long full notes I'm getting out of here Coming to you like a bullet I'm getting out of here Coming to you like a bullet
