The Mouth Organ

歌詞

She took the stand Her time had come To describe the screech of tyres The sudden hit and run She pulled out from her purse The mouth organ Began describing all she'd seen In an eerie, haunting tune The cloudy afternoon The unexpected turn Resulting in the death Of the pedestrian How the accident was caused How the current war And all that happens in this world Has been written in the stars From the day that they invented the car She finished up A little out of breath The judge stood up And threw out all her arguments He had a good mind, so he said To sentence her to death But she'd suffered quite enough Said the counsel for defence She stepped out of the court Happy to be freed Failed to see the laundry van Bearing down at speed All that happens in this world Has been written in the stars From the day they invented the car
