The Colonel (Doesn’t Call Anymore) Songtext
von Crime & the City Solution

Life is moving kinda slow
Let it snow at a southern pain
Tired of sleep, swells awaits
Carpenter tries to assure the gate
Too late, too late, too late

Colonel don′t call anymore
Colonel don't call anymore

Wire whistle through the air
Vultures pick the cockiest pair
Beware, beware, beware
Rest game crew, mutiny!
Rest game crew, mutiny!
Wools wrong, impunity
Flick, think limp by frames
Compton villains take the blame

Colonel don′t call anymore
Colonel don't call anymore
Colonel don't call anymore
Colonel don′t call anymore


She sounds the unwanted warning call
As a tire of babel forms
They admit the cheddar and poem
And vanity sleeps adopted form

You red pimp so she definitely never gains
The narrow part twitch chance and fate
In the darkness before the dawn
She slips out upon a road less warm

She won′t catch you anymore
She won't catch you anymore

They say its put on a show
As foot parts open up below
Friend and foe fast and slow
Up on high and down on low
Go, go, go
Go, go, go

Colonel don′t call anymore
Colonel don't call anymore

Mary won′t catch you anymore
Mary won't catch you anymore
Mary won′t catch you anymore
Mary won't catch you anymore
