Steven Lutvak - Poison in My Pocket (dupl) lyrics

[ASQUITH JR] You and I go sailing by And no one will know where to find us Unseen, unknown, and blissfully alone We're leaving the riff-raff behind us All afternoon in our sweet cocoon Our cares for the moment at bay Side by side, who knows how far we'll glide? Bid the world goodbye; eagerly we fly away [MONTY] I am standing here with poison in my pocket Standing on this frozen little dock It seems that I've just let them skate my opportunity away... Brrr! If I had the poise to put the poison In a pot of tea, or else a shot of gin I would be back amid the noise of London by the end of day... But! I am standing here with poison in my pocket One eye on the target, one eye on the clock It'd better happen soon, before I lose my nerve and run! If I had a knife, I could have grabbed him Then discreetly knocked him on the head and stabbed him Not to mention what I would have done if I had had a gun Then again... The thought occurs, if I had truly taken stock It might've stopped me putting poison in my pocket What a fool; to travel all this way and not think twice! Murder's not a hobby for the cautious Thoughts of violence can make the timid nauseous... Unless, of course, the victim plunges head-on through the ice! It appears that I've been handed quite an opportune solution All that still remains is proper execution.. I had better join them on the lake before it gets too late! Suddenly, there is no stumbling-block It seems that I won't need the poison in my pocket What a stroke of luck Sibella teased me 'till I learned to skate! [MONTY] Closer, now Time is racing, now Time is racing on It's all a matter of pacing In a moment, this moment will be gone! With the rhythm of a violinist, I am sawing where I think the ice is thinnest To create a hole through which the tragic lovers meet their doom One could call call this rather diabolic... Is it strange to feel a wee bit melancholic? Right, a twinge of some remorse, Of course! A conscience I a**ume But no! As i'm cutting I am contemplating, and the truth is it's a tad exhilarating Even though it's not inconceivable that i'll get caught Still, it comes as quite a shock; it seems a novice standing here with poison in his pocket Can decide that murdering Is easier then he had thought [ASQUITH JR] Closer, now Time is Racing Time is racing on It's all a matter of pacing In a moment, this moment will be gone! You and I go sailing by And no one will know where to find us Unseen, unknown and blissfully alone We're leaving the riff-raff behind us All afternoon in our sweet cocoon Our cares, for the moment, at bay Side by side, who knows how far we'll glide? Bid the world goodbye, eagerly we fly away Bid the world goodbye, eagerly we fly- [ASQUITH JR and his lover fall through the ice, screaming and eventually dying] [MONTY] ... Away All of this is, frankly, easier than I had thought
