God bless this kitchen said the knick-knack chef The dinner's almost ready Go and wash yourself
Jimmy's growing up now and Wanda's growing old The time is growin' shorter the nights are long and cold
C'mon, baby, spend the night with me.
Sneaking in the closet and through the diary
Now, don't you know all he saw was all there was to see
The whole town saw Jimmy on the six o'clock news
His brains were on the sidewalk and blood was on his shoes

Summer's end's around the bend just flyin'
The swimmin' suits are on the line just dryin'
I'll meet you there for our conversation
I hope I didn't ruin your whole vacation<p>Well you never know how far from home you're feelin'
Until you've watched the shadows cross the ceilin'
Well I don't know, but I can see it snowin'
In your car the windows are wide open
