Gamma Ray Baby

I wrote this in the “Cold War” era. It was me trying to make fun of a very serious situation.

GAMMA RAY BABY (lyrics)

Well her eyes are on fire, and her hair looks just like wire
She’s a Gamma Ray Baby
It’s amazing she’s not dead ‘cause she was shot right through the head
By a Gamma Ray baby!
My Geiger Counter really gets pegged
When she crawls up to me and starts to beg

Her three hands do the trick, some people think she’s sick
She’s a Gamma Ray Baby
When folks come around, well they get beneath the ground
‘Cause of her Gamma Rays baby!
At night I like to give her a squeeze
‘Cause she lights up and I can find my keys

Gamma Ray Baby
Gamma Ray Baby
Gamma Ray Baby
Gamma Ray Baby

It wasn’t her fault that she turned out this way
You can blame it on the amazing gamma ray
No cure is in sight, but for me it’s all right
I dig a chick with a big over bite

She looks so fine, she’s got a mutant mind
She’s a Gamma Ray Baby
She got an energetic twitch, and some skin that’s gotta itch
‘Cause she’s a Gamma Ray Baby
