I saw the sheriff take off a mask
I thought "what a strange thing,
Story to tell"
I looked to the east, the sun was still rising
"Oh, how surprising"
I thought to myself
On a base near Groom Lake you can see through time and space
And forget all earthly cares
All the doors are green, like a forest it seems
Undisclosed, nowhere.
I saw the hero open his arms
He had nothing in them
No word passed his tooth
I blinked my sight-eyes, and when they re-opened
No amount of hoping
Could disguise the truth
On a base near Groom Lake you can see through time and space
And forget all earthly cares
All the doors are green, like a forest it seems
Undisclosed, nowhere.
