ARE WE IN TROUBLE NOW
With a brass monkey date
The rail-king and the scarecrow
Hopped a florlda freight
And they blew on their paper cups
And stared through the steam
Then they drank half a bottle
Of ragpicker's dream where
The whiskey keeps following
Cold pitchers of beer
Me and my associate
Like the clientele here get
The onions and the 'taters
Rib-eyes on the grill
Toothpicks and luckies
And a coffee refill as
The rail-king lay rocking
He was leaving the ground
Then he was flying like santa claus
Over the town whe
Read About It
No rest for the wicked
No mercy for the rotten
Go create some madness
More coverage than the homeless
Your image here to stay
Your photo on the cover of
Your photo can't get enough
You and I, we read about it
We idolise the criminal mind
Is there a method in our madness?
And we fantasise of committing crimes
And so we remain
You're taken by the story
No escaping from the glory
Never to be forgotten
Now you're believin' in your press
You're not going anyway
Your Photo on the cover of
Your photo can't get enough
Chorus
And so we remain
And so we became
History remains
History today
