lyrics

Our maiden names are middling,
Lanyard as a naval office decked on call.

Luther, Wilkes, Tecumseh,
Edgar, Wendall, Scott, Paul, Delano, Graham.

Cue: “All the other blackbirds knew.
I know it’s true.
I’d rather smart a spell to hear the news from you.”

15 million dollars. 15 millions dollars.
Who would e’er refuse?
15 million dollars. Oh, 15 million dollars.
Who could stand to lose?

“Let’s double down the M-I-S-S.”
“I’m tired. Aren’t you?”
That’s such a way to waste a fine canoe.
