lyrics

BARNEY RUBBLE MEETS MACK THE KNIFE

It was somewhere over by the river where the deal went down
Just a little bit of murder and a little bit of lost and found
Wasn’t any witness but the moon shine on the wall
Ain’t nobody seen a goddamn thing at all

Ain’t it a shame, ain’t it a sin
Someone shot the circuits out from Bedrock to Berlin
Now a lady waits there lonely to the bone
Crying to the silence of a prehistoric phone

It’s a crime and a pity he was too naive to know
There’s a part of the city where the middle class don’t go
Cause there wasn’t any reason for the killin and there ain’t no rhyme
Just a neolithic tourist on a visa from another time

Ain’t it a shame, ain’t it a sin
Someone shot the circuits out from Bedrock to Berlin
Now a lady waits there lonely to the bone
Crying to the silence of a prehistoric phone

Ain’t it a shame, ain’t it a sin
Someone shot the circuits out from Bedrock to Berlin
Now a lady waits there lonely to the bone
Crying to the silence of a prehistoric phone
