[00:01.869] Clouds flash up ahead
[00:04.398] "Just heat lightning," he thinks
[00:06.734] No rain for the flames
[00:20.380] Yeah
[00:36.422] Death rides at night in a copper Pinto
[00:41.869] Candy in the glove box where a revolver would go
[00:46.817] His bones are trapped in greasy fat and he's
[00:51.236] Shaking as he laughs at
[00:56.143] Jokes about the weather and news from the fire at the mill
[01:02.086] Letting parched mosquitoes drink their fill
[01:06.688] Between his knuckles on the wheel while he
[01:11.617] Laughs like baby pigs squeal
[01:16.047] Pale eyes, huge, behind thick glasses
[01:18.632] Speeding through lights, turning green as he passes
[01:25.039] Says, "Weathermen are worse than those tarot card teens
[01:30.246] They can't explain every little thing
[01:36.979] I don't care what they say, ain't gonna rain
[01:42.973] Fires aren't made just to be tamed"
[01:50.436] Yeah
[01:54.285] Death pulls off to piss in a patch of dry weeds
[01:59.436] Aiming at every lightning bug he sees
[02:03.798] Hears a creature crying from a ditch
[02:07.385] You know death just can't resist it
[02:13.599] He looks at all the models on the billboards going by
[02:20.134] Thinking of X's in their eyes
[02:24.263] He smiles at his wandering mind while he's
[02:28.653] Glowing in the moonlight
[02:33.801] The radio turns to static
[02:36.114] He sticks his hand out the window
[02:38.957] And winces at the first drops of rain, yeah
[02:45.164] Huh
[02:49.052] Says, "Weathermen are worse than those palm reading freaks
[02:54.026] They can't explain every little thing
[03:01.045] I don't care what they say about the rain
[03:07.996] It's not stopping in a day, ain't no way
[03:14.168] It's not gonna end 'til every coffin's swimming
