All our natural enemies are gone
We lay around safe in the sunlight
And through the smoke I make out the city
Combat the end of the century
There’s no one left here to fight
And, oh Rhiannon, you’ll never know
The ways I make it through the night
Let’s pack our bags and get out of this mess
Nobody walks in Los Angeles
And it’s too expensive to drive
Robot man, a bad tan, and the idiot summer
White hands that starlight shaded through
And no you can’t—you’ll accidentally live forever in
Doubt, until you find out, find out who made you
The meter’s on and you’ll never leave
A brand new bulb for the black light
They called me in once more for the audit
Got clear and got my certificate
Stared down from the bridge all night
