Shoes Upon The Table lyrics

NARRATOR
HOW SWIFTLY THOSE WHO VE MADE A PACT,
CAN COME TO OVERLOOK THE FACT
OR WISH THE RECKONING BE DELAYED
BUT A DEBT IS A DEBT, AND MUST BE PAID.

MRS LYONS
YOU DO KNOW WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT TWINS,
SECRETLY PARTED, DON T YOU?

MRS JOHNSTONE
WHAT? WHAT?

MRS LYONS
THEY SAY THAT IF EITHER TWIN LEARNS THAT HE WAS
ONE OF A PAIR, THEY SHALL BOTH IMMEDIATELY DIE.
IT MEANS, MRS JOHNSTONE THAT THESE BROTHERS
SHALL GROW UP, UNAWARE OF THE OTHER S
EXISTENCE THEY SHALL BE RAISED APART AND
NEVER, EVER TOLD WHAT WAS ONCE THE TRUTH. YOU
WON T TELL ANYONE ABOUT THIS, MRS JOHNSTONE.
BECAUSE IF YOU DO, YOU WILL KILL THEM

NARRATOR
SHOES UPON THE TABLE
AN A SPIDER S BEEN KILLED.
SOMEONE BROKE THE LOOKIN GLASS
A FULL MOON SHININ
AN THE SALT S BEEN SPILLED.
YOU RE WALKIN ON THE PAVEMENT CRACKS
DON T KNOW WHAT S GONNA COME TO PASS.
NOW Y KNOW THE DEVIL S GOT YOUR NUMBER,
Y KNOW HE S GONNA FIND Y ,
Y KNOW HE S RIGHT BEHIND Y ,
HE S STARIN THROUGH YOUR WINDOWS
HE S CREEPING DOWN THE HALL.

AIN T NO POINT IN CLUTCHING
AT YOUR ROSARY
YOU RE ALWAYS GONNA KNOW WHAT WAS DONE
EVEN WHEN YOU SHUT YOUR EYES YOU STILL SEE
THAT YOU SOLD A SON
AND YOU CAN T TELL ANYONE
BUT Y KNOW THE DEVILS GOT YOUR NUMBER
Y KNOW HE S GONNA FIND Y ,
Y KNOW HE S RIGHT BEHIND Y
HE S STANDIN ON YOUR STEP
AND HE S KNOCKING AT YOUR DOOR
HE S KNOCKING AT YOUR DOOR,
HE S KNOCKING AT YOUR DOOR.
