The Late Nino Quincampoix lyrics

[AMÉLIE]

Nino is late

His watch is probably stopped

And if his watch has stopped

He had to get it fixed

Fixed at the shop

That sits across the tracks

The same high voltage tracks of Europe's fastest train

[COMPANY]

Lost in thought

Nino's half way across the railroad tracks

The instant the train impacts and

Current flows through Nino's arteries

Which stops his heart

While train cars tear his limbs apart and

Nino survives

They even find his watch

Placed back upon his wrist, by a nurse named Nora

[MEN]

She gets him to walk

She bathes him with a sponge

She helps him to his knee when he proposes

[AMÉLIE]

Who has time for a guy like that

For a guy who doesn't know

How to tell time

How to tell time

How to tell

[ENTIRE COMPANY]

How!
