about

A swooning tale of inherent Western greed.

lyrics

Here is Harold Time
Dining with the spies
Swimming deep measure
With the dogs and the wine

He reaches for gold
Two shillings wise
Tramples the tramps
As the story is lied

He swoons in seductive
Sugar and lead
Fine deep pressure
When his language is pressed

Here is Harold Time
Mahogany dolls eyes
Treasure in the floor boards
That he made from the war

The spirits are high
A dog choir lie
A simple western binge
Ages old in its prime

They move onto scotch
Extorsion and fraud
Tick and tock
Tick and tock
The kings of it all

The party in full swing
Ritual rings
Everything to the beat
Everything to the beat

The party full and strong
The heat high and wrong
Dimestore criminal lords
Velvet and gold

Here is Harold Time
Gorging and suit
A lonely greedy heart
The king of that too
