John The Weatherman once pulled me aside.
Told me a tale that made my eyes open wide.
Just off the highway, and underneath the sod,
The Army buried missiles there, pointed them abroad.
They’re comin’ for you, Man. They’re comin’ for me.
They’re comin’ for all of us out at Exit 13.
They buried missiles there. They gotta keep it clean.
They’re buryin’ sunlight down at Exit 13, Exit 13.
Out on Farm St hear Willy screamin’
That’s the spot where they caught the Dover Demon.
Under dark they snuck the body out in bags.
Now the Dover Demon’s under glass at Natick Labs…
They’re comin’ for you, Man. They’re comin’ for me.
They’re comin’ for all of us out at Exit 13.
The giant cockroaches are busting’ at the seems.
I hear they’re hidin’ out in culdesac cuisine
Breath in the mercury and tell me how your head feels.
They’ll lock you up with all the crazies out in Medfield.
Down by the river don’t you get your toesies wet.
The Mad Hatter will be comin’ for you yet!
They’re comin’ for you, Man. They’re comin’ for me.
They’re comin’ for all of us out at Exit 13.
Don’t stick your nose where you oughta keep it clean.
They’re burying sunlight down at Exit 13, Exit 13.
When the town rose up just like Hell’s kitchen
Crashed the statue of ol’ Jonathan Richman
Got in his Roadrunner and shifted into drive
One of the lucky ones who made it out alive.
They’re comin’ for you, Man. They’re comin’ for me.
They’re comin’ for all of us out at Exit 13.
They buried missiles there. They gotta keep it clean.
They’re buryin’ sunlight down at Exit 13, Exit 13.
