Midnight Hanged Man
|
||
|
Midnight Dragon swaggering far and wide |
||
| Side to side, end of the wagon ride | ||
| Cutting it up into hundreds of thousands of pieces of green | ||
|
Pieces of red |
||
| Pieces of gold | ||
|
Sold for a dollar fifty-nine |
||
| To the fuzzy handsome couple with the swollen brains | ||
| Remains will be sprinkled out the driver's side window | ||
| Of a speeding El Camino in the left lane | ||
|
Saint Ides sucker |
||
| Stacking the bottles high enough | ||
| To get a flying start out of here | ||
| Looking for luck inthe long shot | ||
| Pawnshop pawn ticket to the clear | ||
| I'll die to stop you | ||
|
I'll happily spill it all out for the man |
||
| For the cause of the hanging man | ||
| For the red tape and rope and the draining of hope | ||

|
We're not very fast but we don't do a very good job |
||
| Simulating every stitch off every sucker we could rob | ||
|
All this banter be foggin up the windows |
||
| Of a speeding Elcamino | ||
| In the Left Lane | ||
|
I'll die to stop you |
||
| I'll happily spill it all out for the man | ||
| For the cause of the hanging man | ||
| For the red tape and rope and the draining of hope | ||
| Oh yeah - Get with the end of the world | ||
