Out of sight!  The lights are getting brighter.
The radio is moaning,
callin' to the dogs there are still a few animals left out in the yard,
but it's not getting harder to describe sailors to the underfed.
Tropic corridor, tropic treasure.
What got us this far, to this mild equador?
We need someone or something new,
something' else to get us through.
But its getting harder, callin' on the dogs.
Shoot at a few animals left out in the yard but its gettin' much harder.
You'd better come along.  Just you and I.
Better bring your gun.
You'd better bring your gun.
 
(spoken)
 
When all else fails, we can whip the horses' eyes
and make them sleep and cry.
 
2nd voice over last part
 
Callin' on the dogs, callin' on the dogs, callin' on the dogs.
You gotta meet me at the crossroads.
Gotta meet me at the edge of town,
outskirts of the city.
We were so alone.
Better bring your gun.
 
3rd voice over last part
 
Too late, baby!  Too late.
Tropic corridor, tropic treasure.
Tropic corridor, tropic treasure.
