Blaster the Rocketman Album: The Man Who Ate Jesus Track: Stampede!
Stampede! Lyrics
Out on the range one night we saw a strange sight coming right out the sky It was a mosnter herd of the unheard of Livestock of the cosmos A multifarious multitude of intergalactic cattle Well, 'round here we don't take kindly to no otherwordly And a cowboy's gotta do what a cowboy's gotta do I took my rifle from the saddle, my lassoo too
Let's round us up some supper boy Ride 'em fast! Ride 'em hard! (Chasin the Devil's herd) Move along, move along, move along lil' doggies! (Drivin' the monsters from the Earth) Yippi ki ay, Yippi ki oh Keep that cattle movin' Got it rollin' to the killin' Gonna rope up the unwillin'
Saw a rocketship wagon Drivin' hideous horses Had the whole team in its tractor beam They gave an awful, eerie scream that chilled my blood And spooked my steed but I shook it off and took aim at the cockpit Well, the boys were firin' too And we all knew we hit our target As we watched the spaceship goin' down in flames Then our eyes bugged in surprise As the skies turned into chaos The herd was loose.
STAMPEDE! Steady boys, there's gonna be noise! Ride 'em fast! Ride 'em hard! (Chasin the Devil's herd) Move along, move along, move along lil' doggies! (Drivin' the monsters from the Earth) Yippi ki ay, Yippi ki oh Keep that cattle movin' Rollin', Rollin', Rollin', Rawhide! We'll kill 'em when we catch 'em on earthside
I'm back on the range To keep the strange from further invasion Protecting my family and my property
I'm back in the saddle again Where you don't know who's your friend And queer-horned cattle feed On the lonely, bluish weed
Sometimes at night I hear the mournful crying Of bestial extra-terrestrials
