Maybe a flock of hungry tigers
Happened to cross yours ways
Last night
Or were you swallowed by a whalefish
Maybe you got into a fight
Anyway something must
Have happened
Or else you would have called
Maybe you just lost your balance
Maybe you just tripped and fell
And I was not around to catch you
So you went straight down to hell
Maybe you were held a prisoner
And were charged on false A-complaints
Maybe the lord was feeling lonely
And you were picked up by the saints
Anyway something must
Have happened
Or else you would have called
You've got to help me out
'cause I'm running out of reasons
Got to help me out
Cause I'm running out of patience
Got to help me out
'cause I'm running out of you
I'm running out of you
Maybe you were struck by lightning
Or run over by a truck
Maybe a spaceship did abduct you
Maybe I ran out of luck
