[Intro] 
G Bb C (6x)

[Verse 1]
C5
    Dark alley (dark alley)

Black star
A5
    Four turkeys in a big black car
C5
    The road is shiny (bright shiny)

The wheels slide
A5
    Four turkeys going for a dangerous ride
C5
    The lacquer crackles (black tar)

The engines roar
A5
    A ship was turning broadside to the shore
C5
    Splish splash, I was raking in the cash
          A5
The biology of purpose keeps my nose above the surface

[Chorus]
G                                   Bb
King's lead hat put the innocence inside her
           C
It will come, it will come, it will surely come
G                                 Bb
King's lead hat was a mother to desire
           C
It will come, it will come, it will surely come

[Verse 2]
C5
    In New Delhi (smelly Delhi)

And Hong Kong
A5
    They all know that it won't be long
C5
     I count my fingers (digit counter)

As night falls
A5
     And draw bananas on the bathroom walls
C5
     The killer cycles (humdrum)

The killer hertz
A5
    The passage of my life is measured out in shirts
C5
    Time and motion (motion carried)

Time and tide
         A5
All I know and all I have is time and time and tide is on my side
