WORLD SPIN ROUND
Eight by ten cell, waiting for the dinner bell
Thumbing through a magazine
One night of jealousy, class one felony
Jesus gonna wash you clean
Dragon tatoo, fire plus altitude
Stalking up and down your arm
Oh, Mississippi, won't you tell me that you miss me
Been a long, long time gone
Light through the window is illuminating
The slow hands of the jailhouse clock
Day in, day out sunrise, sundown
Tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock
World spin round

Half a year's salary
She really cut her calories
To squeeze into that white lace gown
Bridesmaids whispering
Her heels are a'blistering
Pacing round that churchyard ground
Where the hell is the guy
He better have an alibi
That'll make him shine like a saint
Roses wilt in the sun
She thinks about her brothers gun
Aunt Maureen is feeling faint
People start edging toward the buffet
She stares up at the steeple clock
Hope and blame and rage and shame
Tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock
World spin round

1965
The king was still alive
New kid on the auto line
Hand me that wrench Mac
I'm putting in an eight track
Fast forward and rewind
Wives come, wives go, tighten down the bumper chrome
New model on the showroom floor
Coffee breaks, nicotine, lunch room magazines
Buddy who could ask for more
Forty years of sliding in the time card
Into the unforgiving time card clock
Laughs and jokes and drinks and smokes
Tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock
World spin round

Time and space, human race
One big billiard game
Super nova, solar flare, string theory, double dare
Comet leave a two tone flame
Place your universal bets
God lights another cigarette
Chalking up his big ass cue
Black hole in the side pocket
Silly little moon rocket
Chugging through the altitude
Aztecs are busy sacrificing
Hearts to the bright sun clock
Hope and blades and stone parades
Tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock
World spin round
