Walking Papers (2012)

The Butcher


Who knows how he got out early

Or how he got an extra chance

It’s funny who we meet in the back of an ambulance

Sometimes a fool gets lucky

This time it was with a nurse

Just when things can’t get no worse

So she moved in a stranger

And we could tell it was no good

But mothers do all sorts of things

that their babies don’t think they should

He introduced her to his demons

She started moving in reverse

Just when things can’t get no worse

When they finally found his body

He had laid out there for weeks

Seems he and the butcher knife went dancing

Must have been cheek to cheek

So she started talking crazy bout a pistol in her purse

Just when things can’t get no worse
