Hello Albatros

I walked into a field, a field of tall, tall grass
And I met a grasshopper who was the size of a man
This humongous insect asked me
"What are you doing here?" to which I replied
"I am walking and I am talking"
But the grasshopper didn't believe me
And I didn't notice till now the rifle he was carrying
He aimed it at me

Hello Albatross, are you going my way?
I've got a funny feeling that I'm dying today
Hello 707, are you flying away?
Can I ride with you back to the U.S. of A
Where everyday I'll hide in a redwood tree
All of California will be drifting undеr me
Nobody there can touch you
And nobody thеre can hurt you

The grasshopper fired three times with his rifle
The first bullet hit me in the stomach
The second bullet put a hole in my heart
But the third bullet drilled through my skull
And for the first time, as I fell
I was able to see
As I bled to death in the tall grass
I could see everything
As I closed my eyes
I saw the sun rise

Hello octopus-woman, is there an octopus man?
And if there isn't, can I hold your hand?
Hello Gertrude and Gary, I want to see you carry
Me inside your belly
Where I can be everyday, hiding away
At the top of a redwood tree
All of California will be drifting under me
Nobody there can touch hurt you
And nobody there can hurt you

As I bled to death in the tall grass
I could see everything
As I closed my eyes
I saw the sun rise
As I bled to death in the tall grass
I could see everything
As I closed my eyes
I saw the sun rise
As I bled to death in the tall grass
I could see everything
As I closed my eyes…
