Humming to himself as he,
|
Is thinking of his latest debts,
|
Juggling some numbered thoughts,
|
Wondering what might come next,
|
And swears he won't,
|
Ever stop,
|
Unless he wants what
|
She surely does not,
|
|
Oh, Jim, John, Jackie, and Susie Q,
|
They mind their manners but so do you,
|
Oh we breathe all of these words that make no sense,
|
|
Humming to himself as he,
|
Is thinking of his latest debts,
|
Juggling some numbered thoughts,
|
Wondering what might come next,
|
And swears he's right,
|
Though he's convinced himself it is,
|
|
Working in an upscale place,
|
She's thinking of her son's demise,
|
On his epitaph a doctor's bill,
|
She puts off for another time,
|
And swears she won't,
|
Ever stop,
|
Unless she wants what
|
She surely does not,
|
|
Oh, Jim, John, Jackie, and Susie Q,
|
They mind their manners but so do you,
|
Oh we breathe all of these words that make no sense,
|
|
Not gonna see till my singing days are gone,
|
Not gonna hear until the fires have burned on,
|
Not gonna, no oh,
|
Not gonna, no oh,
|
Not gonna, no oh,
|
Till the singing days are gone.
