[Verse]
Cm Do
Franz is a good man now
Gm7 Eb
He's stopped the booze, holy cow,
Ab G
He's out of prison, his girlfriend's ribs
Ab G
He broke them with an egg whisk
Cm Do
You broke each one, you were pissed,
Gm7 Eb
You broke each one with an egg whisk
Ab G
But her killer is still walking about
Ab G
Splashing semen, orgasmic shout,
Ab G
He'll find a nice girl and settle down
Ab G
He won't be nobody's clown
[Verse]
Cm Do
He who killed her is living
Gm7 Eb
Blossoming, drinking and guzzling
Ab G
But her killer he's still on the run
Ab G
When you got money the police stay dumb
Ab G
He'll find a nice girl, he'll settle down
Ab G
He won't be no one's clown
Ab G
He'll find a nice girl and settle down
Ab G
He won't be no one's clown
Cm Do
Franz is a good man now
Gm7 Eb
He's stopped the booze, holy cow,
Ab G
A murderer, he drinks in bars every night
Ab G
And spends his money, the whores delight,
Ab G
He's gonna find a nice girl and settle down
Ab G
He won't be no one's clown
[Outro]
