Cows and Aliens

Verse 1

Milk-white lights but the cows don't low

Saw a saucer settle over the bog

Tipped my jug back for a longer stare

Something blinking through the fog

Pre-Chorus

Hollow hum across the field

Corn all bowing where they stood

Chorus

Probe me up to the cattle deck

Got moonshine burns on my solar plexus

Little green doctors with the coldest hands

Measuring methane to the promised land

Probe me up through the swamp tonight

Take a read of my holstein appetite

Cows and aliens and copper stills

Bury me down where the water's still

Verse 2

Thin machines on the plank-board floor

Tap-tap-tapping at the milking door

Grab my pickle jar and my rusty pliers

They love the smell of the tall tales higher

Pre-Chorus

Barefoot through the methane dew

Waving maps I never drew

Chorus

Probe me up to the cattle deck

Got moonshine burns on my solar plexus

Little green doctors with the coldest hands

Measuring methane to the promised land

Probe me up through the swamp tonight

Take a read of my holstein appetite

Cows and aliens and copper stills

Bury me down where the water's still

Bridge

Every pasture knows the smell

Every midnight tells the tale

Fart to the sky like a holy psalm

Chorus

Chorus

Probe me up to the cattle deck

Got moonshine burns on my solar plexus

Little green doctors with the coldest hands

Measuring methane to the promised land

Probe me up through the swamp tonight

Take a read of my holstein appetite

Cows and aliens and copper stills

Bury me down where the water's still
