Lyrics

        I wanna tell you 'bout Texas Radio and the Big Beat 
        Comes out of the Virginia swamps 
        Cool and slow with plenty of precision 
        With a back beat narrow and hard to master 
        Some call it heavenly in it's brilliance 
        Others, mean and ruthful of the Western dream 
        I love the friends I have gathered together on this thin raft 
        We have constructed pyramids in honor of our escaping 
        This is the land where the Pharaoh died 
        The Negroes in the forest brightly feathered 
        They are saying, "Forget the night. 
        Live with us in forests of azure. 
        Out here on the perimeter there are no stars 
        Out here we is stoned - immaculate." 
        Listen to this, and I'll tell you 'bout the heartache 
        I'll tell you 'bout the heartache and the lose of God 
        I'll tell you 'bout the hopeless night 
        The meager food for souls forgot 
        I'll tell you 'bout the maiden with raw iron soul
