lyrics

He thought her temperament was cautionary
To match her figure so aviary
But he saw her in a rage
When someone rattled her cage

He said: Hyperborean silent treatment
We will discover your little secret
If the fates allow
It’s too cold for cocoa, that won’t save you now

She said: I guess that I could cooperate
But first let me stipulate
There will be no questions until the end
Patience is a loyal friend

I didn’t know where he would be
I guess that I just got lucky
When I found him by the coast
I pulled out my pistol upon my approach

I said: There are five holes in your head
And you use every one of them
So let me make one more
A rigid body lined the shore

The waves must have carried him away
And laid him down to a watery grave
A cenotaph was built
Where there ain’t no body, there ain’t no guilt

We are gathered here today
I thought I heard the pastor say
And then I left the scene
Not fear not boredom, maybe somewhere in between

And if I have learned one thing
From all of my ramblings
It’s that in some movies, no one cries
Some things are just empty inside
Some things are just empty inside
