[3/4, fast waltz]
WELCOME TO HEBO WALTZ (2003)
--J. Wrabek
CHORUS:
C G
The sign said, “Welcome to hebo,” but there was no one around;
C
Felt just like after they’d all got the Rapture, and I’m the one left on the ground;
F
They could’ve been ay-ttacked, and all caught the anthrax, and they just hauled the bodies away—
C G C
Or else they were hiding, in case there was fighting, when I came through Hebo today.
1.
The sign said “Welcome to Hebo,” but there was no one in sight;
Cattle were breeding, mosquitoes were feeding, treatment plant smells filled the night;
The stop sign was working—traffic had stopped—even the whorehouse was dark:
No place t’get gas, and no place t’get coffee—not even a good place to park.
CHORUS:
The sign said, “Welcome to hebo,” but there was no one around;
Felt just like after they’d all got the Rapture, and I’m the one left on the ground;
They could’ve been ay-ttacked, and all caught the anthrax, and they just hauled the bodies away—
Or else they were hiding, in case there was fighting, when I came through Hebo today.
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK
2.
The sign said “Welcome to Hebo,” and I was afraid;
What if aliens landed, from some other planet, and sucked ‘em all up into space?
I’ll have to write Santa, say “Don’t come to Hebo, I think all the people are dead—
But their gifts’ll be wasted, their toys should be played with, so bring ‘em to my place instead.”
CHORUS:
The sign said, “Welcome to hebo,” but there was no one around;
Felt just like after they’d all got the Rapture, and I’m the one left on the ground;
They could’ve been ay-ttacked, and all caught the anthrax, and they just hauled the bodies away—
Or else they were hiding, in case there was fighting, when I came through Hebo today.
3.
The sign said “Welcome to Hebo,” and I turned around;
‘Cause I like the nightlift instead of the wildlife, and Hebo’s got no life in town;
But if you crave quiet, I know where t’buy it—a ghost town, an hour away—
There’s no population, but a great invitation: experience Hebo today.
CHORUS:
The sign said, “Welcome to hebo,” but there was no one around;
Felt just like after they’d all got the Rapture, and I’m the one left on the ground;
They could’ve been ay-ttacked, and all caught the anthrax, and they just hauled the bodies away—
Or else they were hiding, in case there was fighting, when I came through Hebo today.
