Call It Something

Emmy was a school gem

and she shot the shit with the best of them

and she used clean needles when she can

and if that veins down use another one

Sancitfied rich girl

with her daddy's kisses

and her mother's pearls

and she played dumb

and played hard to get

and it worked until they found her dead

We all go down and hit the ground

Lezy was a teacher

she had 30 kids and they were all a peach

and then a space man came along

took her hand and led her home

Came home drunk from town and he took his gun and he shot her down

and the judge said that he could not believe that a man would kill his family

We all go down and hit the ground

and you gotta call it something

cause it always ends up nothin

for you to see that time goes on.
