Six O'Clock News |
Wanda had a baby in nineteen fifty one. |
The father was stranger and a stranger was the son. |
Call that child james lewis, call these rooms a home. |
Changing all them diapers polish all that chrome. |
C’mon, baby, spend the night with me All around the schoolyard playing all the games |
Running, laughing back and forth the kid with two first names |
Stranger in the closet, lock the diary |
The past is running faster singing harmony |
«god bless this kitchen"said the knick-knack shelf |
«the dinner’s almost ready go and wash yourself» |
Jimmy’s growing up now and wanda’s growing old |
The time is growin' shorter the nights are long and cold |
C’mon, baby, spend the night with me Sneaking in the closet and through the diary |
Now, don’t you know all he saw was all there was to see |
The whole town saw jimmy on the six o’clock news |
His brains were on the sidewalk and blood was on his shoes |
C’mon, baby, spend the night with me |
C’mon, baby, spend the night with me |
