(needs some work)


Johnny’s in the shoe shop

Talkin computations

"Oswald's" on the pavement

Thinking about the opanaks,

The man in the trench coat

'n' Julia goin' postal

Says she’s got a bad cough

Wants to get it paid off

Look out kid

It’s nuthin’ you did

God knows why

But soon you gotta die

Hair messed, you better duck in the theater

Lookin’ for a mirror

The man in the coon-skin cap

Is a big pig

Needs eleven old bills

To get your handcuffs rigged

Linnie comes fleet foot

Tongue full of loose talk

Sayin’ to the flatfoot

'bout some scary paper sack but

They'll make another one anyway

Ruthie says that many say

They gonna throw away the key today

Orders from the D.A.

Look out kid

Don’t matter what you did

Walk on your tiptoes

Go home, change ya clothes

Better stay away from those

That carry around a fake nose

Keep a straight pose

Watch the one who knows

You don’t need a window

To see which way the Paines close

Get beat, catch Hell

Get fingerprinted at a ink well

try n adapt, ring Abt

Hard to tell who's the sap

They'll change yo' alibi into a lie

Using Reid, it never fails

Get jailed, a bullet for bail

No shoes for Junie if you fail

Look out kid

You’re gonna get hit

By anti-this, pro-that

Feds in fedora hats

Hangin around the theater

With your little box top

Lookin’ out for that cop

Don’t follow Lowery

Watch for talk too flowery

Ah get reborn, sweet Jesus'll keep ya warm

Short glance, Minsk romance, learn to dance

Get changed, tale rearranged

They'll use you for their success

Please Ruth, please Mike, buy time

Don’t reveal, don’t lie

Twenty years of loyalty

And they put you in the depository

Look out future

History is a butcher

Better jump through a wormhole

Light yourself a candle

In memory of the Randles

The cops are the vandals

Don’t wanna stay schtum

You better chew gum

And watch for all the banter

When Baker changes to a 2nd floor encounter

They put Johnny and Bobby in the ground 

Then the place was run by shucks and clowns

Motherfuckers are still thick on the ground 

Coz there’s a new God – There’s a new God in town.

alrernative start:

Ruby's in the basement

mixin up his metaphors

Oswald's on the catwalk

Wonderin what the media's for...





Alternative end

Don’t wanna be Les

Or the New Fez

The "Fact" don’t flush

’cause the Frankie broke the handle

Baker comes fleet foot, looking at who to shoot, Truly says Oswald is only there to stack books, The Patsy is tagged anyway, Fritz says he's the Man, he say, they must bust early in the day, orders from the D.A

They leaned on the fellas with pigment

told a tale that was mainly figment

Domino Room's elevated to second fiction

and the kid's looking for a hole to get sick in.


(and I can almost hear the harmonica...)


Very nice, Greg.   

;)
