Lyrics The Mountain Goats

The Mountain Goats

Down Here

On Venus it rains sulphuric acid

And the raindrops evaporate before they hit the ground

Japanese red-crowned cranes by the water here

Trouble in town

I feel like I'm gonna drown down here

It's all coming down down here

Hurricanes in from Australia

Tore up the neighborhood

A telegram from Lithuania

And the news is not good

And I don't speak the language down here

It's all coming down down here

Johnson Johnson is my name

Brooklyn is my station

Heaven is my resting place

God is my salvation
