Jack Ruby - Camper Van Beethoven[00:00:00]
I remember his hat tilted forward[00:00:15]
His glasses are folded in his vest[00:00:23]
And he seems like the kind of man who beats his horses[00:00:31]
Or the dancers who work at a bar[00:00:41]
We saw on the screen his face for a moment[00:00:47]
No time to plead or even ask why[00:00:55]
Jack ruby appeared from out of nowhere[00:01:03]
Then disappeared in broad daylight[00:01:12]
'Cause he's a friend of that cloven hoofed gangster the devil[00:01:18]
He's been seen with the sheriff and the police[00:01:26]
Drinking whiskey and water after hours saying[00:01:34]
Let's do business boys the drinks are on me[00:01:41]
So draw the box along quickly[00:01:50]
Avert your eyes with shame[00:01:58]
Let us stand and speak of the weather[00:02:05]
And pretend nothing ever happened on that day[00:02:11]
Grant us the luxury 'cause all our heroes are bastards[00:02:53]
Grant us the luxury 'cause all our heroes are thieves[00:03:00]
Of the innocence of the afternoons[00:03:08]
Now we think it's a virtue to simply survive[00:03:15]
But it feels like this calm it's decaying[00:03:24]
It's collapsing under its own weight[00:03:32]
And I think its your friend the hangman coming[00:03:40]
Choking back a laugh a drunkard swaggering to your door[00:03:46]
Now do you feel that cold icy presence[00:04:27]
In the morning with coffee and with bread[00:04:35]
Do you feel it in the movement of traffic[00:04:43]
And days are terrible simply forget[00:04:49]
