[L.M. Jenssen / J. Hagen]



Swipe the jelly glass clean 

I thougt I might let it all blow over 

We can talk about anything else 

I assume the matter is too delicate 



He's passing it over now 

with his standards of professional confidence 

The AA meeting is buzzing 

his collegues are compassionate people 



Stick your leg out 

the papers have been put away 

pieces of mind 

stacked under his chesterfield 



The hat sticks to his forehead 

he leaves for his usual afternoon conference 

Knowing how to speak to offenders 

they'll be ready for his imminent summoning 



Stick your leg out 

the papers have been put away 

pieces of mind 

stacked under his chesterfield
