A Fine New Silk Tie
Frenchie Escargot and Slag Slurry Sam
Were working real hard on their latest scam
Selling Imported Vodka to a Russian troupe
From the trunk of a fancy 56 coupe

Gathering their rubles mixed in with a dime
They opened their door with an imported key lime
There on the couch sat Stella the Red
Sipping on Pepsi she's soaked up with bread

Well lookey lookey, here are my boys
Come on in and check my new toys
She had a LAWS rocket and a fancy new Glock
And a dynamite old Swiss Cuckoo clock

But the one thing there that caught both their eyes
Was a pair of fancy silk billiard ball ties
How much for these said Slag Slurry Sam
Would you take five dollars and a canned Hormel Ham

Stop moving so fast Stella said with a purr
As she pulled out a paper from under her fur
The ties are yours free you don't have to ask
If you'll do me a favor just one little task

I'm having some trouble with this one stupid guy
And I need you to do me a little drive by
You want us to kill him said Sam sounding tough
Or maybe just snatch him and get kinda rough

It won't be that easy said Stella with a frown
I want you to poison his damn little town
See there's something that's mine that he won't give back
That's why I'm planning this little attack

So what's a few hundred dead people or more
Me and Escargot have done worse before
No it won't be a hundred when death takes it's tolls
More like a million departed dead souls

Escargot just whistled and said gee I don't know
This sounds like one time I don't want to go
But those billiard ball ties are sure looking' fine
And it'll be on your conscience and not be on mine

So we're set then said Sam now fill in the blanks
Where will we find the towns water tanks
Oh they desalinate's how it was told to me
So all you must do is poison the sea

I've got all the poison down stairs in my car
And here's the plane tickets the towns kinda far
Here's some cash to rent a fast ship
I'm sure it will be a rather quick trip

So the plan it was set they shook on the deal
Sam so excited he wanted to squeal
A few days later they had entered the town
And decided to have a quick look around

It was a nice quiet place the people seemed kind
Sam started having second thoughts in his mind
He thought to himself this doesn't seem right
But wearing that tie I'll sure look good at night

And poor Escargot was having like thought
As his greed and his conscience endlessly fought
But they rented the boat and the plan moved ahead
In a few short hours they all would be dead

But best laid plans fucking up as the norm
Once out at sea they encountered a storm
Feeling quite sick they both went below
And both fell asleep as the storm it did blow

And when they awoke they finished their job
But arriving in port they found a mad mob
Shouting she killed our children this Stella The Red
And when we find her she's gonna be dead

And who is this Stella and what was her crime
Sam asked some fellow making nooses with twine
She sold the mayor lime aide for the schools big bash
And cut it with antifreeze to make some more cash

So this Stella The Red all our kids she has killed
And now she threatens us for not paying what's billed
I know this Stella I'll tell you where to go
In order to find her for a little bit of dough

Sam snitched her off got a bag full of cash
And he and Escargot they made a mad dash
Out of that town and high into the air
Their best double cross ya they hadn't a care

With a few extra bills upgraded first class
And drinking Champagne from a fine crystal glass
A fine meal served of fresh fish caught that day
But of course it was caught in the poisoned towns bay

Frenchie Escargot and Slag Slurry Sam
Died as the plane into ground it did slam
Frenchie was screaming I don't want to die
As Sam imagined wearing his billiard ball tie

The town closed the beach a week and a day
But desalination made the poison go away
Stella got strung up to pealing Church bell
As the devil awaited her arrival in hell

And the moral of this tale of lies and deceit
I'm thinking of one while scratching my feet
Nope I haven't a moral of why they had to die
But I think I'll look sharp in Sam's billiard ball tie!
