Phoebe Killdeer and the Short Straws Big Fight Lyrics

Sweet tooth and lady
And bones and me
Sitting by the old cemetery

Smoky came, came join us
And told us how
The square was quiet
And no one would
Witness a big fight

Cool cat, cool
Small time rat
Killed the pack
And we're off rat-tat-tat

Down the alley way
Passed Freddy's roulette
Such a dangerous game
To place a bet

Well, swing a left now
Through this shady street
The square's dark and dull
It's time to shuffle your feet

Well, come flirt with death
I'll give you a tease
Come and see how sharp
Each one of my blades is

A flicker of dim light
Shows smooth silk shadows
Quick Jones and loose Jim's are waiting

Eyes sparkling and fiercely smiling
They're ready to shoe shine this city, yeah
They're ready to shoe shine this city down

Place your bets
I said place your bets

See, I got sweet wine and small pets
I got ice cream and cigarettes
Place your bets

There's gonna be a big fight
There's gonna be a big fight
There's gonna be a big fight tonight
There's gonna be a big fight tonight
