(Tom Waits/K. Brennan) The Ice Man's mule is parked Outside the bar Where a man with missing fingers Plays a strange guitar And the German dwarf Dances
Well the time will come When the wind will shout All stripped down All stripped down And all the sinners know What I'm talking about All stripped down
(Tom Waits/K. Brennan) Take an eye for an eye Take a tooth for a tooth Just like they say in the Bible Never leave a trace or forget a face Of any man
(Tom Waits/K. Brennan) What does it matter, a dream of love Or a dream of lies We're all gonna be in the same place When we die Your spirit don't leave
heaven is full Bring me some water Put it in this skull I walk between the raindrops Wait in Bug House Square And the army ants They leave nothin' but the bones
(Tom Waits/K. Brennan) Well I'm goin' out west Where the wind blows tall 'Cause Tony Franciosa Used to date my ma They got some money out there They
(Tom Waits/K. Brennan) When I'm lyin' in my bed at night I don't wanna grow up Nothin' ever seems to turn out right I don't wanna grow up How do you
(Tom Waits/K. Brennan) The women all control their men With razors and with wrists And the princess squeezes grape juice On a torrid bloody kiss What
up with leaves With a blanket from the moon With a promise and a vow And a lullaby for my brow Jesus gonna be here Be here soon Well I'm just gonna wait
C'mon let me get up on it
(Keith Richards/Tom Waits) Well there's one thing you can't lose It's that feel Your pants, your shirt, your shoes But not that feel You can throw it
The ocean doesn't want me today But I'll be back tomorrow to play And the stranglers will take me Down deep in their brine The mischievous braingels
(Tom Waits/K. Brennan) There was a murder in the red barn Murder in the red barn The trees are bending over The cows are lying down The atumn's taking
(Tom Waits) I've grown up here now All of my life But I dreamed Someday I'd go Where blue eyed girls And red guitars and Naked rivers flow I'm not
(Tom Waits/K. Brennan) They're lining up To mad dog your tilta whirl 3 shots for a dollar Win a real live doll All the lies that you tell I believed
is full inside The dollhouse of her skull A cheetah coat fills up with steam She's such a scream All crooked lines Her fireplace A milktrain so clean Machine
