Day of the Triffids

in the midday heat i gave a sigh
cruisin through the garden district
i was out of my mind
the star of indias in my hotel room
in a briefcase combination 3 2 1
which only i know
and i've just seen my mentor dr no
california sun is on the radio lets go
i just wanna reach the radio star
its a satellite off venus and it aint too far
i just wanna reach the radio star
i was shooting up in my hotel room
when the phone started ringing oh no
it was dr. no he gave the password
he said hey man haven't you heard and i said no
the worlds been invaded by alien life forms
meet me at the airport weve got to get out lets go
i just wanna reach the radio star
its a satellite off venus and it aint too far
i just wanna reach the radio star
its a satellite off venus and it aint too far
i just wanna reach the radio star
i ran to the window and looked out
there were dead people lying all over the streets
within two minutes i had all my stuff together
i jumped in my car and was speeding down
the highway past all the deserted cars
in five minutes i was at the airport
but there at the gates i saw
what i suppose was one of these alien life forms
i pulled my bazooka out of its bag
in the back of the car and blew it to hell
as arrange dr no was waiting for me in the terminal
we got in his private jet plane and took off
two hours later landing in zaire
where we met up with fu manchu
hannibal lecter the hooded claw
and all the rest of the gang
we boarded the rocket and soon
we were shooting off for the stars
and as we approached the space station
i looked down and observed the earth
the us air force being annihilated
and swarms of nuclear weapons soaring
through the stratosphere destroying the earth
and i swear to god i laughed
i just wanna reach the radio star
its a satellite off venus and it aint too far
i just wanna reach the radio star
its a satellite off venus and it aint too far
i just wanna reach the radio star
