[00:16.607] | I don't care to say what |
[00:19.206] | I failed to recognize |
[00:25.090] | Every single day from the poker to the prize |
[00:33.179] | Running out of Springfield |
[00:35.913] | I worked for the Capitol Air, in the bags |
[00:41.296] | Found a woman there who said |
[00:45.196] | She had a mind to make |
[00:47.365] | Me a messenger man |
[00:53.830] | If my father took his life |
[00:56.614] | For the national plan, I don't care |
[01:01.764] | I'm not about to stick my grave with an |
[01:05.831] | Apron and a bucket of plans, never ever |
[01:10.134] | I can take the pillow cases |
[01:12.427] | Off the yellow pillows |
[01:14.241] | Make a property line from the bed |
[01:18.787] | In the living room, the living room |
[01:21.156] | The morning papers made the most |
[01:23.917] | Out of nothing at all |
[02:00.919] | So we took the room |
[02:02.818] | With a view of the runaway |
[02:09.051] | I took off my clothes |
[02:11.269] | And she took it for a holiday |
[02:17.499] | I was taken for all the things |
[02:21.242] | That I never had before |
[02:26.002] | Running out of Springfield |
[02:28.550] | She left me with a note saying: |
[02:31.237] | "Bobby, don't look back" |
[02:37.171] | And if my wife took a bicycle ride |
[02:40.975] | With a knife in her hand |
[02:44.547] | I saw it coming |
[02:46.438] | All the shadflies run at once |
[02:49.320] | With a trumpet or a train |
[02:52.160] | Oh, I'm running from it |
[02:54.786] | Wait a minute, wait a minute |
[02:56.758] | Give a minute, lady |
[02:58.386] | I can explain the aftershave |
[03:03.068] | Wait a minute, wait a minute |
[03:05.060] | Give a minute |
[03:06.239] | Bobby got a shadfly |
[03:08.548] | Caught in his hair |
[03:11.566] | (Yes, he does) |
