Written in 1979.

The song was the first use of a vibrating dildo use on the guitar to create an low-tech “e-bow” sound.

  Too light, too dark, confusing
  Can't seem to get organized
  Tracing footsteps through the jungle
  Don't care much for surprise
  My heart beats like a drum now
  Up-tempo rhythm for my feet
  Air ripples signify the climate
  The noise cuts through the heat

  Honor all the rituals
  Make sacrifice supreme
  Hang a lucky charm outside your door
  They're changing all the patterns
  That my soul they might redeem
  Still I don't feel that much secure

  New dolls replace the old ones
  Some pins, needle to the vein
  Promote zombie non-action
  Incentive wrapped in cellophane
  There's no pillow on the alter
  No dream: just go to sleep
  Perched on the edge of decision
  Hold hands, close eyes, and leap

  Honor all the rituals
  Make sacrifice supreme
  Hang a lucky charm outside your door
  They're changing all the patterns
  That my soul they might redeem
  Still I don't feel that much secure
