Song Nr. 46 – He´s Working In The Night Shift

„Sodom und Gomorrha“ bei den LITTLE EARWIGS. Das wahre Leben hält manchmal die verrücktesten Geschichten bereit. Was aus einem einfachen Theaterbesuch so alles werden kann – man glaubt es kaum. Aber wie langweilig wäre das Leben, wenn es keine Männer und Frauen geben würde – die bekanntlich nicht zusammenpassen. Manchmal führen die männlichen Triebe in ein Nirwana, aus dem er gern wieder flüchten möchte. Besonders unangenehm, wenn sich sein schlechtes Gewissen dämonenhaft aus dem Hintergrund meldet und sich über ihn auch noch lustig macht:„HE´S WORKING IN THE NIGHT SHIFT“.

Lyrics Song Nr. 46 – He´s Working In The Night Shift

Well, I was sitting in the first row of the balcony.
Was drinking beer and having fun. Oh yes, I was so free.
He was so free, up on the balcony.

I had about the very best view on the dusty stage.
The lady right beside me, no, she wasn´t quite may age.
Up on the stage, she wasn´t quite his age.

But we were driving to her home in her old Ford.
For ev´ry mile I sent a prayer to the Lord.
A prayer to the Lord.

SOLO

And I arranged myself right on that lady´s canopy.
A heart of stone, well, and I felt my head was full of beer.
Head full of beer, on lady´s canopy.

That good old lady quickly started to unwrap her face.
For just a second wanted being on another place.
Unwraped her face, he needs another place.

That wife was not exposed to have too bad a night.
She didn´t even look as if she was so tired.
Oh no, she wasn´t tired.

He´s working in the night shift, the bitches are in heat.
He´s working in the night shift, and the ladies,
So called ladies hard to please.

Well, and I tried every position which I thought I knew.
Like “sixty nine” or “back to back”, or man, what do you do?
He thought he knew, oh man, what do you do?

I called it quits and started packing now my good old bag.
As I was just about to have a little heart-attack.
A heart-attack, he needs his good old bag.

I do not really want to die a way like this.
That lady was a thing that I would rather miss.
That he would rather miss.

He´s working in the night shift, the bitches are in heat.
He´s working in the night shift, and the ladies,
So called ladies hard to please.
