The last one out of Bours
The last one out of Gours
May god Abe the last one to get out of GoursBm  G  A

Do just what your mother doesn't think you should

Pass the building where your father works

The topless bars and the church

I ain't superstitious but it's making me nervous

Shouldn't we at least say something first
