Forty Minutes Lyrics by Railroad Jerk

One Track Mind

1995

In forty minutes or so I'll be dead
So long to all my beloved friends
My records go to my former lovers
My boa constrictor goes to my ex-wife
My china goes to my two-year-old niece
My trampoline goes to my priest
Here she comes, the angel in black
Coming to take me back
Yeah, I've played my aces and my kings are gone
The clock is ticking and I don't have long
I'm in trouble in the final hand
You want to leave, but you can't
Forget the dishes, I hear the call
This is it, folks, fare thee well
I'll take my leave now, I'm moving on
I wish to thank each and everyone
And everyone that I ever slept with
And everyone that I ever fucked
Those that I helped and those that I hit
May you all rest in peace when I die
Yeah, this is my last testament
I can no longer be a participant
It takes time to sink in, too
But take heart: it's not you
I'm slipping quickly into the next world
I kiss the babies and all the young girls
Hope we can do it again sometime
Who will the world revolve around now?
I'm going now, time to say goodbye
I hope you manage without me
I will die from natural causes
It's in my stars, that's how I know
Au revoir
So long
Goodbye
I'm going
Oh, yeah
See you later
I'm going
So long
Goodbye
I'm leaving
Oh, yeah
Goodbye
