Dark alley black star Four turkeys in a big black car The road is shiny, bright shiny, the wheels slide Four turkeys going for a dangerous ride
The lacquer crackles, black tar, the engines roar A ship was turning broadside to the shore Splish splash, I was raking in the cash The biology of purpose keeps my nose above the surface
King's lead hat put the innocence inside her It will come, it will come, it will surely come King's lead hat was a mother to desire It will come, it will come, it will surely come
In New Delhi, smelly Delhi, and Hong Kong They all know that it won't be long I count my fingers, digit counter, as night falls And draw bananas on the bathroom walls
The killer cycles, humdrum, the killer hertz The passage of my life is measured out in shirts Time and motion, motion carried, time and tide All I know and all I have is time and time and tide is on my side
King's lead hat put the poker in the fire It will come, it will come, it will surely come King's lead hat was a mother to desire It will come, it will come, it will surely come
The weapon's ready, ready Freddy, the guns purr The satellite distorts his voice to a slur He gives orders, finger pie, which no one hears The king's hat fits over their ears
He takes his modicate, indecipherable, cold turpentine He tries to dial out 999999999 He dials reception, moving finger, he's all alone He's just a victim of the telephone
King's lead hat made the Amazon much wider It will come, it will come, it will surely come King's lead hat put the poker in the fire It will come, it will come, it will surely come
King's lead hat was a mother to desire It will come, it will come, it will surely come King's lead hat put the innocence inside her It will come, it will come, it will surely come
