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
