RUBY'S DEEP HEARTED AZURE EYES
( Slowly spoken word intro by lead singer ) "This one's .....for the kids........ We need.......we must put them first........... They are the rock, the......... really,.......the um, well you all know. Now remember, it's not best to toss around blame......Stay woke, though.......Thank you for comin' tonight..... For all the kids. And um,......yea that's it,...... to all you kids enjoying retirement too...... I can't retire, ever..... Ah one two three four!" ( Verses ) She's been movin' around the house With a bomb shelter Behind each azure eye Said her love here lately's Evaporated Gone paprika dry I finished our baby carriage And it left me with A quiver in my throat She took a jet quick look Then she asked, Johnny Where'd ya toss my coat? ( Chorus ) Drove home from work last night Under a mustard grey sky Burnt crippled along the edges Pulled into Sinclair On Vine With the green dinosaur sign Renewed my vows and pledges Same spot where first we met First I kissed an Air Force Vet Felt like it's doin' my duty She was in between tours Trapped in some palate cleansing war Soon it was bye bye Ruby............... ah, no no no! say HELL ... NO!... no no no........ aaahhhhhoooooooeee! ( Verses ) She stopped home at Ten Eleven Said you might as well meet Kevin That Saturday morn They peeled off with our son's carriage Yelled, thanks Johnny, for the marriage Easy as shucking corn ( Bridge ) Stepped back inside my sunkin' home Caught the last of the Road Runner Show Used ta laugh at that puff of dust After Wile E. Coyote plunged from a cliff....... To his predictable fate below....... A good two thousand feet ...below....... why, Ruby, why?....... Ruby, please don't fly..... Please don't fly....... away from.......far away from me....... Ruby, ....don't you die..... aaahhhhoooooooo ( Repeat Chorus ) ( Repeat Chorus Again )
