Welcome to Atom Bomb City
Narrator:

Way out west in a quiet little town called Atom Bomb,
where that hot sun is shining bright, even through the night!
Way out west in a quiet little town called Atom Bomb,
out there by the road is a man with a story to be told.
It ain’t too long...

The Trucker (a stranger comes to town)
Trucker:

Well, I’ve spent 6 years on the old and I’m broken, downhearted...
I’ve done 6 lines of cocaine and I’m tired of livin’!
Leave me out here on my own, I’m broken, downhearted...
Leave me out here on my own, I’m tired of livin’!

Last Cigarette
Wanderer:

I took another drag of the last cigarette of the night,
I thought about my day and all that I did right... nothing comes to mind.
I thought of a joke that made me laugh but I can’t remember the lines.
I’m thinking that it’d be funny if it didn’t happen all the time, ever since the light...

I took another drag and I blew another line,
thinking of the words she said the other night; right before she died.
I thought of a time when we were young, when joy filled her eyes...
Come to think I hadn’t seen her smile in quite a while, ever since the light...

There will be no tomorrow, I can’t remember yesterday!
I’ve been thinking about leaving now for so long but I can’t remember the way.

This is a town of forgotten dreams and memories.
This is a place we call Atom Bomb City!
It’s hard to find but if you happen to pass through
won’t you tell us a story over a drink or two?
“Barkeep, how about another round?”
You know I’m not normally like this but a stranger’s in town
and I should make the most of this...

Ferguson, MO Austin, Texas

Ferguson, MO is a small town outside of St. Louis.

It also happens to be a very special place to me.

So special, in fact, that I named my band after it.
