I'm traveling down to Salem
I'm a judge at a jury trial
Got to get there by morning sunrise
Got to save someone's innocent life
Open up, open up hysteria

Fear at a, at a fever pitch

Fever streets, walk don't walk

Crowded sky of ventilators

Antennas out, under the

Moving sky, moving sky



Moving road, billboards flying by

Rental cars, tubes and tires and chains

Then everything around me silently linked

Signs generating reality



Open up, open up hysteria

Fear at a, at a fever pitch

Fever streets walk don't walk

Crowded sky of ventilators

Antennas out, under the

Moving sky, moving sky



Now every surface lethal

Wipe it down and change your mood

A shapeless, creeping, growing thing

A Salem barrister's Waterloo



Open up, open up hysteria

Fear at a, at a fever pitch

Fever streets walk don't walk

Crowded sky of ventilators

Antennas out, under the

Moving sky, moving sky



Open up, open up hysteria

Fear at a, at a fever pitch

Fever streets, walk don't walk

Crowded sky of ventilators

Antennas out, under the

Moving sky, moving sky



As we sit on the sidelines

Open up hysteria

Walk don't walk
