Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There was a cosmos
There was a sea
It took a piece of your heart
A little piece of me
[Chorus]
Out of the desert
Down from the stars
The truth
Sharktooth
[Verse 2]
Hang it on a string, man
Circle round your neck
The mesa of Shiprock
God's discotek
[Chorus]
Out of the desert
Down from the stars
The truth
Sharktooth
[Verse 3]
They ran across red plains
Swam through the sand
The hourglass was shattered
Just like the band
[Chorus]
Down to the nightclub
And dressing room stars
The truth
Sharktooth
[Verse 4]
It's a very small world
With a very big sign
Where a neon message
Says, "It's time to dine"
[Chorus]
Out of the darkness
Route 51
The truth, the truth, the truth
Sharktooth
