Tom Waits - Lullaby lyrics
Well Frank settled down in the Valley and he hung his wild years on a nail that he drove through his wife's forehead he sold used office furniture out there on San Fernando Road and assumed a $30,000 loan at 15 14% and put a downpayment on a little two bedroom place his wife was a spent peice of used jet trash made good bloody marys kept her mouth shut most of the time had a little Chihuahua named Carlos that had somekind of skin disease and was totally blind they had a thoroughly modern kitchen self-cleaning oven (the whole bit) Frank drove a little sedan they were so happy One night Frank was on his way home from work, stopped at the liqour store picked up a couple of Mickey's Big Mouths drank 'em in the car on his way to the Shell station, he got a gallon of gas in a can, drove home, doused everything in the house, torched it parked across the street laughing watching it burn, all Halloween orange and chimney red then Frank put on a top forty station got on the Hollywood Freeway headed north Never could stand that dog |
