Pop, six, squish, uh uh, Cicero, Lipchitz, x4
He had it coming, he had it coming,
He only had himself to blame,
If you'd have been there
If you'd have seen it
I betcha you would
Have done the same!
Pop, six, squish, uh uh, Cicero, Lipchitz, x2
You know how people have these little habits that get you down
Like Bernie,
Bernie, he liked to chew gum
No
Not chew, pop
So, I came home this one day and I’m really irritated
And I’m looking for a little bit of sympathy
And there's Bernie lying on the couch, drinking a beer and chewing
No
Not chewing, popping
So I said to,
I said, “you pop that gum one more time...",
And he did
So I took the shotgun off the wall
And I fired two warning shots...
...into his head.
He had it coming, he had it coming
He only had himself to blame
If you'd have been there
If you'd have heard it
I betcha you would
Have done the same!
I met Ezekiel Young from Salt-lake city about 2 years ago
And he told me he was single and we hit it of right away
So, we started living together
He'd go to work, he'd come home,
I’d fix him a drink
We'd have dinner.
And then I found out
Single he told me
Single my ass!
Not only was he married, oh no, he had six wives
One of those Mormons you know
So that night, when he came home from work,
I fixed him his drink as usually
You know, some guys just can't hold their arsenic.
He had it coming, he had it coming
He took a power in his stride
And then he used
And he abused it
It was a murder but not a crime
Now, I'm standing in the kitchen
Carving' up the chicken for dinner,
Minding my own business,
In storms my husband Wilbur a jealous rage.
"You been screwing' the milkman,"
He says. He was crazy
And he kept on screaming',
"You been screwing the milkman,"
And then he ran into my knife.
He ran into my knife ten times!
If you'd have been there
If you'd have seen it
I betcha you would have done the same!

My sister Veronica and I had this double act
And my husband Charlie travelled around with us
Now, for the last number in our act,
we did these 20 acrobatic tricks in a row
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, splits, spread eagles, back flips, flip flops,
One right after the other
So this one night before the show,
We were down at the hotel Cicero
The three of us, boozing, having a few laughs
And we ran out of ice.
So, I go out to get some
I come back, open the door
And there's Veronica and
Charlie doing Number Seventeen-
The spread eagle.
Well, I was in such a state of shock, I completely blacked out,
I can't remember a thing.
And it wasn't until later, when I was washing the blood off my hands
I even knew they were dead!
They had it coming, they had it coming
They had it coming all along
I didn't do it, but if I’d done it
How could you tell me that I was wrong x2
I loved Alvin Lipchitz more then I could possible say
He was a real artistic guy... sensitive... a painter
But he was always trying to find himself.
He'd go out every night looking for himself.
And on the way he found
Ruth, Gladys, Rosemary and Erving
I guess you could say we broke
up because our artistic differences.
He saw himself as alive
and I saw him dead.
The dirty bum bum bum bum bum x2
He had it coming, he had it coming
They had it coming all along
Because he used us
And he abused us
How could you tell me that I was wrong
He had it coming, he had it coming,
He only had himself to blame,
If you'd have been there
If you'd have seen it
I betcha you would
Have done the same!
