| 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
|
| Cold turpentine
|
| He tries to dial out 999 999 999
|
| 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 |
