Cold Tea - The Korgis

The shoe-shine was cool

He’d sussed out the scene

Scratch was nobody’s fool

He’d always come clean

If this was a frame-up

Who built the frame?

Was this the big pay-off

Or some crapulous game

I know you think I’m going thru' it

But babe don’t weep

I didn’t do it

The light was dim, I never knew it’s a sin

To drink cold tea

That pig he was rough

Trailed us right round the block

Enid stashed all her stuff

Behind the grandfather clock

If this was the show-down

Who wrote the show?

Was he the big con-man

Or some cadaverous crow

I know you think I’m going thru' it

But babe don’t weep

I didn’t do it

The light was dim, I never knew it’s a sin

To drink cold tea
