Tom Waits Friday



I Don't Wanna Grow Up

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 move in a world of fog
That's always changing things
Makes me wish that I could be a dog
When I see the price that you pay
I don't wanna grow up
I don't ever wanna be that way
I don't wanna grow up

We sail tonight for Singapore
Don't fall asleep while you're ashore
Cross your heart and hope to die
When you hear the children cry.
Let marrow bone and cleaver choose
While making feet for children shoes
Through the alley
Back from Hell
When you hear that steeple bell
You must say goodbye to me.

Wipe him down with gasoline
Till his arms are hard and mean,
From now on boys this iron boat's your home
So heave away boys.

One of my favorite TW songs. I've never seen the video.

Thank you for that. Nicely done on this Friday, as the weekend looms.

Thanky-Thanky!

From the inner-adult.

I need a drink!

You should have a belt or two yourself.

Lets stoke up the ole spam catcher on this viagra peddler.

On a related note, I was looking through a car magazine the other day and noticed all of the viagra ads. There were also all sorts of enhancing creams and enticing perfumes. Me?, I like to drive. The sheer joy of plowing through my six-speed tranny, hittin' the curves and winding it up. Evidently, a lot of guys who buy cars to , in short, make their dicks bigger or something.

Then theres bush. Remember his 'feels good' remark when he started up the war machine and let 'er loose.

Some guys, much moreso than girls, it would seem, they'll go out, buy a car, maybe rub some of that bigger-dick-creme on themselves and wheel up and down the boulevard. Thats about the extent of their damage. Bush, on the other hand, being the vicious chickenshit he's always been, gets his 'self-image-enhancement' via the death and destruction of thousands of innocent people.

Sorry to run on like this, it being 4:30am and noone around to mind the Mr. Glass's house, I thought I'd ramble just a bit.
