Swampland Songtext
von The Scientists

Every day at dusk when the sun fades
The bottom line returns to the Everglades
A place of hollowed deep mangroves and rot
Shotguns and snakes, alligator wine
Nobody knows so they never think to visit
Where the atmosphere′s so thick that you could kiss it
I've never seen rattlesnakes diving for their prey
Or wood smut yolks with roots in decay


In my heart is a place called swampland
Nine parts water, one part sand
In my heart is a place called swampland
Nine parts water, one part sand

They′re just jet true on their hovercraft
May I take a swing, you think a ride
To them it's the home of a hungry piranha
To me it is sheer nirvana

In my heart is a place called swampland
Nine parts water, one part sand
In my heart is a place called swampland
Nine parts water, one part sand
