[the following intro is spoken over someone speaking in french

And english, perhaps giving a french lesson]:

I'm an alien from another sphere. the thing i like about the

Earth is the range of colours -- fantastic to mundane; brilliant

To dull. as i was penetrating the ozone, i c.. perchanced to

Notice the orange peel-like quality of the light playing upon the

S.. the ocean. i gotta go right now; someone is videotaping me

In my spaceship.



All around a water tank

Just a-waitin' for a train







A thousand miles away from home

Just a-waitin' in the rain

I walked up to a breakman

Just to give him a line of talk

He said, if you got money,

I'll see that you don't walk

I haven't got a nickel,

Not a penny for to show

Get off, get off, you railroad bum

And he slammed the boxcar door

They let me off in texas

A state i dearly love

The moon 'n' stars above me... and what else?
