Текст Paul Simon – The Werewolf

Milwaukee man led a fairly decent life
Made a fairly decent living, had a fairly decent wife
She killed him. Ah, sushi knife
Now they’re shopping for a fairly decent afterlife

The werewolf is coming

The fact is most obits are mixed reviews
Life is a lottery, a lotta people lose
And the winners, the grinners with money-colored eyes
Eat all the nuggets, then they order extra fries

The werewolf is coming. (Extra fries)
The werewolf is coming. The werewolf’s coming,
the werewolf’s coming, yes, the werewolf is coming, Joe

I hear her howling, prowling on the hill
The werewolf’s coming, Bill

Ignorance and arrogance, the national debate
Put the fight in Vegas, that’s a billion dollar gate

Revenue, pay per views, it should be pretty healthy
The usual deductions, then it all goes to the wealthy

Still, the werewolf’s coming
Yeah, the werewolf’s coming

I’m not complaining, just the opposite my friend
I know it’s raining, but we’re coming to the end
Of the rainbow, the lyin’ and the spyin’ are through
Oh, you don’t know me?
OK, I don’t know you, too

The werewolf’s coming. Werewolf’s coming, oh
The werewolf’s coming, and a werewolf’s coming
The werewolf is coming, Joe

I hear her howling, prowling on the hill
The werewolf’s coming, Bill

You’d better stock up on water, canned goods off the shelves
And loot some for the old folks who can’t loot for themselves
The doorbell’s ringing, could be the elves
But it’s probably the werewolf. It’s quarter to twelve
And when it’s midnight, and the wolf bites

It’s a full moon, she really got the appetite
The werewolf’s coming
(The werewolf, the werewolf.)
The werewolf’s coming
(The werewolf, the werewolf.)
