[LM 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
