Artwork is a vintage 1970s photograph of a band playing at the Tomorrowland Terrace in Disneyland, California.
The band in the photograph is playing under a coke sign, "Cement, Gravel, and Rock Co.", could possibly be the name of the act on stage.
Hajime Tachibana - XP41 was co-written by Mark Mothersbaugh from Devo. ^[2]

Lyrics

Track at 1:21:54

On the hill starts a bright new day
Soon the queen will come our way
The hillside's a place to share
A place to grow, love and care
