Killing Time Is Murder

Pretty
as a Royal Doulton Rich
as the royal mint Fickle
as a shadow on the mausoleum wall Phosphorescent
and candle lit Busted
in the maids' broom closet Corset
up around her neck Like
a collar on a dog the girl got 'round Faster
than a Tampa bred greyhound When
all is said and all is done Time
will waste everyone Killing
time is murder Jibbed
out Mary Kay Pimms
in the cooler and daughter in the yard Playing
California strip croquet Sky
daddy’s got his eye on you You
better keep your vuarnet’s on tight But
your Brooklyn Hustle and your Fawcett flip He says sugar you’re dy-no-mite When
all is said and all is done Time
will waste everyone When
all is said and all is done Time
will waste everyone Terry
cloth yellow tube top Carton
of Virgin Slims Salty
as the tepid Sarasota coast line Sinks
faster then a Tunny swims Tongue
is a sharpened razor Little
miss know it some But
get her alone she cries I wanna go home Oh this, little piggy plays dumb When
all is said and all is done Time
will waste everyone When
all is said and all is done Time
will waste everyone Parking
lot almost empty Last
tooth in a smile Torrential
rain spins the weather vane Oh summer’s, going out in style We all leave empty handed No spare dart for the road Spit
shine your Mary Janes Oh this, little piggy runs home Spit
shine your Mary Janes Oh this, little piggy runs home When
all is said and all is done Time
will waste everyone When
all is said and all is done Time
will waste everyone
