Palm Springs is burning and nobody cares
Zombies roam freely while smoke fills the air
Burning the date palms and crashing their cars
Mindless hordes fill the night clubs and bars
Fly away o'er the mountains toward the light of day
Snowbirds and bath salts are a terrible mix
They’re burning the storefronts in search of their fix
Hipsters and seniors unite for a feast
They’re hungry for brains as they travel Southeast
Cathedral City's burning and nobody cares!
The National Guard gave up and left in a tear
Indio's flattened, and DHS too
Rancho Mirage will soon be brain stew
Sail away...in search of the light of day
Thermal is burning, Imperial Valley is next
When they cut off our food supply we'll all starve to death
So load all the guns and take what you can
We’ll hole up in Mecca to make our last stand
If we can’t kill the zombies, last chance is to flee
It’s better to drown in the Salton Sea
Then suffer the bites and turn undead
Cannablistic and fucked in the head
Run away...before the colors fade to gray
NEWSFLASH! Las Vegas. Following the catastrophic zombification of the Coachella Valley, California residents have ventured North seeking refuge. Moving through and past an irradiated Southern Nevada, they trek onward to the abandoned Yucca Mountain nuclear storage facility, only to be greeted by the dual calamities of re-animated alien corpses from Area 51, and atomic blasts initiated by the United States federal government, now leaderless and desperate to quell the undead uprising.
Due to the escalating nature of this regional emergency, the governors of California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah and New Mexico are advising all residents to do the only action which can stifle
this zombie apocalypse - Duck and Cover!
