Birdbrain worked at the liquor store
And he gave free drinks to the pretty ladies
Who liked to hide their wedding rings from him
But Birdbrain’s boss kept him around
Cause he always clocked in on time.
A storm came through Birdbrain’s neighborhood one evening,
Knocked half the city over like a plaything,
But Birdbrain still clocked in on time
Even if he walked through the storm to do it.
Liquor store got bought up by some bigger chain
Birdbrain’s boss tried to explain it to Birdbrain
But it wasn’t boss’ problem anymore
So Birdbrain goes to clock in the next day
And the door’s locked
And he breaks the door down
And the store’s empty
There’s nowhere to clock in.
Birdbrain had a perfect streak
And Birdbrain had a lot of Girlfriends he was expecting tonight
And Birdbrain didn’t like to let people down.
So he waits around until there’s someone to explain this to.
Now there are lights outside
The flashing kind with the colors
And Birdbrain knows they’re here
Because he didn’t clock in on time
But they don’t understand
So he goes out shouting
Loud enough to be heard over the sirens
“I was here on time,”
And then Birdbrain was in a cell
Boss doesn’t take his phone call
No one else to talk to
He spends the night there.
Next evening,
Birdbrain breaks out
Goes back to the liquor store
Still can’t clock in
Get’s arrested again
And this cycle goes on for a long time.
All those men are dead now.
That liquor store that turned into another liquor store got knocked over.
Today, it’s a parking lot.
For a while, storms kept pulling Birdbrain up out of the ground, streets flooding, always dumping the corpse right where he’d clock in every day, right when he’d arrive for work. He’s buried under that spot now and he’s got nowhere else to go.
When we are called to put the Great Work into motion
We must be punctual.
