Back In The Depot
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Lower away the lifeboats
Shark repellants been diluted twice
Condemnned parachutes in the locker
Drying up the ice
Christopher is cryin'
One more weeping child
Martha in the corn bush
Driving my compass wild
But back in the depot
I gotta stopwatch in my hand
Back in the depot
I gotta stopwatch in my hand
Hoist the jolly roger
He's a rascal when he's mad
there ain't no friend like an old one
Now ain't that just too bad
He who wakes in the den of the tiger
He shall no sleep alone
(Chinese sounds)
But back in the depot
I gotta stopwatch in my hand
Back in the depot
I gotta stopwatch in my hand
Eye witnesses seeing double
Streamlined look in the bar
Tell my darling Corrie
I love her most of all
Costello is on a murder
and he's pushin it really slow
Bassinette for his baby
The one he used to know
But back in the depot
I gotta stopwatch in my hand
back in the depot
I gotta stopwatch in my hand
