There's a churning , There's a churning, There's a churning around I can't fall asleep and the d** won't stay down There's a burning, There's a burning,There's a burning I've Found. It's deep in the pit Where the blood pumps around All children are laughing outside. The work never sleeps and there is no where to hide It's under control far as anyone seen But there ain't enough sh** to climb out the latrine There's a witness, There's a witness, There's a witness out there We've got to pretend that the moneys still here There's a knocking, There's a knocking, There's a knock at the door We'll tell them that uncle don't live here no more All the angels are crying down stairs the brandy's run out but their god never cares Just grab them and tell them the evenings been ruined and his robes reek of failure and cheep french perfume
There's a tinkering, There's a tinkering, There's a tinkerer in town she'll fix everything till the moneys been found There's a watchman, There's a watchman and he's guarding the door with a drink in his hand and a gun on the floor And the monsters blew in through the sewers again and they spend every night making evermore friends They've conquered the bowels of Paris and now They have every intention of Taking the town There's a bottle, There's a bottle, There's a bottle in my bed It helps me to reach for the switch in my head There's a madness, There's a madness at bay but a cold wind will blow down the levee some day A trade of blows but the doctors been hanged In a white little house oh the telephone rang and It's under control far as anyone seen But there ain't enough sh** to climb out the latrine
