|
Here's a hint of gold |
|
Stuck into a tooth |
|
Pardon me M'sieur |
|
You won't be needing it no more. |
|
Shouldn't be too hard to sell. |
|
Add it to the pile |
|
Add it to the stock |
|
Here among the sewer rats |
|
A breath away from Hell |
|
You get accustomed to the smell. |
|
|
|
Well someone's got to clean 'em up, my friends |
|
Bodies on the highway |
|
Law and order upside down |
|
Someone's got to collect their odds and ends |
|
As a service to the town! |

|
Here's a tasty ring |
|
Pretty little thing |
|
Wouldn't want to waste it |
|
That would really be a crime |
|
Thank you sir, I'm in your debt |
|
Here's another toy |
|
Take it off the boy |
|
His heart's no longer going |
|
And he's lived his little time |
|
But his watch is ticking yet! |
|
|
|
Well, someone's got to clean them up, my friends |
|
Before the little harvest |
|
Disappears into the mud |
|
Someone's got to collect their odds and ends |
|
When the gutters run with blood. |
|
|
|
It's a world where the dog eats the dog |
|
Where they kill for bones in the street |
|
And God in His Heaven |
|
He don't interfere |
|
'Cause he's dead as the stiffs at my feet |
|
I raise my eyes to see the heavens |
|
And only the moon looks down |
|
The harvest moon shines down! |
