See his bones across the dust On the road to Zap city Devil's slow to recognize Whether we all live in Zap city Young girls fly to the beaches Take me now boys Take me now preachers Santify Sanctify To the old heat, Zap city Zap City, she's so pretty Win all day, more than too many Zap City, she's so pretty The girl of your dreams Live in sanction, sandy girls Hot on Route 66 to Zap City Another day in paradise Metropolis moves like a hungry wolf Hungry wolf Dusky palm trees, are they real? Line the roadside to zap city Buildings red, life on the sky Dancin' drug addicts real so far Zap City, she's so pretty Win all day, more than too many Zap City, she's so pretty The girl of your dreams Gasoline, mescaline I'm praying she-dog bites Beauty queens wrapped up inside Gettin' hot, stayin' up all night Siren's cry breaks thru the night God, Oh he's gone to fly Zap City, you know it's so pretty She's so God damn pretty | |
