Six O'Clock News

Wanda had a baby in nineteen fifty one
 The father was a stranger and a stranger was the son
 Call that child James Lewis, call these rooms a home
 Changing all them diapers, polish all that chrome
 C'mon baby, spend the night with me
 All around the schoolyard playing all the games
 Running, laughing back and forth the kid with two first names
 A stranger in the closet, lock the diary
 The past is running faster singing harmony
 C'mon baby, spend the night with me
 "God bless this kitchen", said the knick-knack shelf
 The dinner's almost ready, go and wash yourself
 Jimmy's growing up now and Wanda's growing old
 The days are growin' shorter, the nights are long and cold
 C'mon baby, spend the night with me
 Sneaking in the closet and through the diary
 Now, don't you know all he saw was all there was to see
 The whole town saw Jimmy on the six o'clock news
 His brains was on the sidewalk and blood was on his shoes
 C'mon baby, spend the night with me
 C'mon baby, spend the night with me
 C'mon baby, spend the night with me
