Tom Waits - Heartattack & Vine Lyrics
Liar liar with your pants on fire, white spades hangin on the telephoneWire, gamblers reevaluate along the dotted line, youll never recognizeYourself on heartattack and vine.Doctor lawyer beggar man thief, philly joe remarkable looks on in disbelief,If you want a taste of madness, youll have to wait in line, youll probablySee someone you know on heartattack and vine.Boneys high on china white, shorty found a punk, dont you know there aintNo devil, theres just God when hes drunk, well this stuff will probably killYou, lets do another line, what you say you meet me down on heartattack andVine.See that little jersey girl in the see-through top, with the peddle pushersSucking on a soda pop, well I bet shes still a virgin but its only twenty-Five til nine, you can see a million of em on heartattack and vine.Better off in iowa against your scrambled eggs, than crawling down cahuengaOn a broken pair of legs, youll find your ignorance is blissful every goddamnTime, yourre waitin for the rtd on heartattack and vine.
