[NDC] One Mile Dust Cloud

Nordic Discord Challenge Genre: Psychobilly Theme: Ground Zero ▶️ Lyrics Was sittin' in the old café down by the river When the sun came up red and raw across the sky Old man jenkins swore he saw a bottle rocket Fallin’ from on high The café shook The coffee jumped We quit whisperin’ our quiet prayers And stumbled out to watch it fly by A little wink of hello y’all Then the thunder started talkin’ tall Now main street’s got a brand new landmark A crater one mile wide Yeah, the bank, the bar, the baptist spire All caught a sudden dose of flame From a rock without a license Playin’ heaven’s outlaw game My pickup’s got a custom sunroof Compliments of the big surprise The supermarket’s now a griddle Sizzlin’ under alien skies Some call it a calamity I call it finally some open space With a skyline sketched in charcoal haze Main street’s got a brand new landmark A crater one mile wide The diner and the feed store Got a sudden change of plans Swapped their windows for a bedrock view Built by no mortal hands They said the world would end in fire Well, they got the zip code right (Whoo) Yeah, main street’s got a brand new landmark A crater one mile wide And the library and city hall Are stardust on the breeze We’re the pioneers of nothin’ left With a brand new set of keys And there ain’t no sorrow in this rubble Just a cosmic rowdy peace So let it glow (Let it glow) Let it settle (Let it settle) Stomp your boots upon this ground ’Cause freedom’s just a town That finally got unbound
