Midnight Shift John Cooper Clarke

Midnight Shift - John Cooper Clarke
There's a body in the basement
The TV's full of guns
In the room adjacent
Cold water runs
The sound of cisterns
Sizzling bacon or chips
Footsteps in the distance
She's working on the midnight shift

The room is getting colder
Start jumping Jack
You're the bluebird over her shoulder
The monkey on her back
She left your taxi fare
There's a message in the gift
You got more than she could spare
She's working on the midnight shift

Feedback screams on a twisted riff
Luxembourg by night
The cheapjack dream of the midnight shift
Doesn't work out right
He's got to shoot, he's got to shoot
Put his face about
It's like the long abandoned baseball boot
With the tounge hanging out
