Tommy Shooter - The Fall

I got news for you*

I got news for you my friend

To which you will have to attend

Reduce your knees to noodles

Your Doberman Pinschers to poodles

Tommy Shooter

Painting yellow flowers

Sorry after blowing her away

Tommy Shooter

See the clouds are darkening

With wings of chickens

They’re coming home to roost

I’m telling you my friend

Pictures of poodles

Chickens coming home

To sit on your shoulder bone

Painting yellow flowers

After blowing away

Another balloon string

Held at bay

Tommy Shooter

Rather than

Facing up to it

It is you

In Chicken Shack

Father, short-sighted

Me, blind

The rubbish that accepted

Piles up in the corridor

The locals are in the realm of humiliation

Painting yellow flowers

Sorry after blowing her away

Tommy Shooter

I got news for you

I got news for you my friend

To which you will have to attend

Reduce your knees to noodles

Your Doberman Pinschers to poodles
