Harry James Angus The Stovecook And The Waitress
"If there's trouble, I wanna know
In a second I'll be there"
Said the stovecook to the waitress
And she sat and brushed her hair
She said
"Stovecook you couldn't even kill a cockroach without crying
I'll be fine"
"I'm sorry sir, you've got to go"
Said the waitress to a man
Who was dancing around the restaurant
With his penis in his hand
And she grabbed him by the ear
And she threw him to the pavement
"I could've helped you out you know"
Said the stovecook and he sighed
And in the hour before morning
When gentle comes the light
And they sat upon their plastic chairs
And waited for the sunrise
"You know if you were my girl
I would never treat you wrong
And I'll kill that motherfucker
Next time he comes along"
Said the stovecook to the waitress
When she came in every now and then
With bruises from her friend
"I'm sorry sir, you've got to go"
Said the waitress to a man
Who was screaming bloody murder
And when he raised his hand
I was there right beside you
Like I said that I would be all along
My darling, I'll never let you cry
There's a moment when the darkness
Starts to fade out of the night
In the hour before morning
When gently comes the light
And he laid upon the cold cold floor
And said "I think I'm dying"
Dim sims, and burgers
And potato cakes, and pizzas
And angel headed hipsters
And the vicious creatures
And beer and blood and vomit
And a cold sharp breeze that comes from somewhere
Far away from here
