A Strange Juxtaposition...
    #2168229 - 12/08/03 03:56 AM (20 years, 3 months ago)



Everything you can think of is true
Before the ocean was blue
We were lost in a flood
Run red with your blood
Nigerian skeleton crew

Everything you can think of is true
The dish ran away with the spoon
Dig deep in your heart for that little red glow
We?re decomposing as we go

Everything you can think of is true
And fishes make wishes on you
We?re fighting our way up dreamland?s spine
Red flamingos and expensive wine

Everything you can think of is true
The baby?s asleep in your shoe
Your teeth are buildings with yellow doors
Your eyes are fish on a creamy shore


*Tom Waits/Kathleen Brennan 1992

You can hang me in a bottle like a cat
Let the crows pick me clean but for my hat
Where the wailing of a baby
Meets the footsteps of the dead
We?re all mad here

As the devil sticks his flag into the mud
Mrs Carol has run off with Reverend Judd
Hell is such a lonely place
And your big expensive face will never last

And you?ll die with the rose still on your lips
And in time the heart-shaped bone that was your hips
And the worms, they will climb the rugged ladder of your spine
We?re all mad here

And my eyeballs roll this terrible terrain
And we?re all inside a decomposing train
And your eyes will die like fish
And the shore of your face will turn to bone


*Tom Waits/Kathleen Brennan 1992

Last night I dreamed that I was dreaming of you
And from a window across the lawn I watched you undress
Wearing your sunset of purple tightly woven around your hair
That rose in strangled ebony curls
Moving in a yellow bedroom light
The air is wet with sound
The faraway yelping of a wounded dog
And the ground is drinking a slow faucet leak
Your house is so soft and fading as it soaks the black summer heat
A light goes on and the door opens
And a yellow cat runs out on the stream of hall light and into the yard

A wooden cherry scent is faintly breathing the air
I hear your champagne laugh
You wear two lavender orchids
One in your hair and one on your hip
A string of yellow carnival lights comes on with the dusk
Circling the lake with a slowly dipping halo
And I hear a banjo tango

And you dance into the shadow of a black poplar tree
And I watched you as you disappeared
I watched you as you disappeared
I watched you as you disappeared
I watched you as you disappeared


*Tom Waits/Kathleen Brennan 1992

Learning lines in the rain
Special effects by Loonatik and Drinks
The graveyard scene
The golden years

She?s in parties
It?s in the can

Freeze frame screen kiss
Hot heads under silent wigs
Fall guys tumble on the cutting room floor
Look-a-likes fall on the cutting room door

She?s in parties
It?s in the can

Learning lines in the rain
Special effects by Loonatik and drinks
Freeze frame, screen kiss, hot heads, lights and power
It?s patently obvious

She?s in parties
It?s in the can

Hot lines under a rain of drum
Cigarette props in action
Dialogue dub, now heres the rub
She?s acting her reaction

She?s in parties
It?s in the can

Her gaze hit the side of mine
So I opened it out
To destroy what you thought was difference

So I lied to you once again
So I painted over you once again
So I die before you once again
?What?s the difference?

Come clearly where the flavour is
Seen here in black and white
You?ve got two seconds baby boy
In burning light white light
?What?s the difference?

Clear up what you are
Burn out these eyes
Rip up this place and scream
?I am your slice of life?

Shivering under lamposts
Shivering under glass
Your standing on charisma again
God knows it cannot last
?What?s the difference?

Ice inside your body
Blood inside your soul

Yet still twelve faces stand around
Hugging your skinny bones
?What?s the difference?

So clear up what you are
Burn out these eyes, rip up this place and scream
?I am your slice of life?

And the car opened him up to so much more
And the money is brighter with a wider smile
And the problem expands inside your head

?I am your slice of life?

Running without aim
Through the razor weeds
That only reach my knees
And when I?m lying in the grey sleep
I don?t know how to walk the boards
I open my eyes, and look at the floor
And now I don?t see you anymore

There is no choice, we make the point
To counteract a threatening hand
Close my hold
As we near the atmosphere

These are the stories of Edgar Allan Poe
Not exactly the boy next door

He?ll tell you tales of horror
Then he?ll play with your mind
If you haven?t heard him
You must be deaf or blind.

These are the stories of Edgar Allen Poe
Not exactly the boy next door

He?ll tell you about Usher
Whose house burned in his mind
His love for his dear sister
Her death would drive him wild
The murder of a stranger
The murder of a friend
The callings from the pits of hell
That never seem to end.

These are the stories of Edgar Allan Poe
Not exactly the boy next door
These are the stories of Edgar Allan Poe
Not exactly the boy next door

The diabolic image of the city and the sea
The chaos and the carnage that reside deep within me
Decapitations ? poisonings ?hellish not a bore
You won?t need 3D glasses to pass beyond this door.

These are the stories of Edgar Allan Poe
Not exactly the boy next door

No Nosferatu Vincent Price or naked women here
A mind unfurled a mind unbent is all we have here
Truth, fried orangutans flutter to the stage
Leave your expectations home
And listen to the stories of Edgar Allan Poe.

We give you the soliloquy the raven at the door
The flaming pits the moving walls no equilibrium
No ballast no bombast
The unvarnished truth we?ve got
A mind that swoons guiltily at night
Cooking ravings in a pot.

A tell-tale heart a rotting cask
A valley of unrest
A conqueror worm devouring souls
Keep the best for last
Rings for Annie Lee
As Poe?s buried alive
Regretting his beloved?s death in all her
Many guises.

These are the stories of Edgar Allan Poe
Not exactly the boy next door


*Lou Reed

Dobie, actually, I think we were listening to, "Bone Machine," by Tom Waits. That was also the soundtrack for a most excellent, and frightening, late night run into Astoria, on Friday night! :grin:



This is the place where she lay her head
When she went to bed at night
And this is the place our children were conceived
Candles lit the room at night

And this is the place where she cut her wrists
That odd and fateful night
And I said, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, what a feeling
And I said, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, what a feeling

This is the place where we used to live
I paid for it with love and blood
And these are the boxes that she kept on the shelf
Filled with her poetry and stuff

And this is the room where she took the razor
And cut her wrists that strange and fateful night
And I said, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, what a feeling
And I said, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, what a feeling

I never would have started if I?d known
That it?d end this way
But funny thing I?m not at all sad
That it stopped this way
Stopped this way


*Lou Reed

I?m a little balloon and I get puffed up
Squeeze me and bend me it?s never enough
Put your lips around me, blow me up
But if you prick me I will pop

I?m a little balloon full and firm
Here is my aft and here?s my stern
Here?s my lips and here?s my hose
Put me down or I will burst
If you prick me I will burst!


*Lou Reed


Well, that?s all folks! Sorry, but I spent all night painting, so I?ve been a little "edgy," and this seemed like a good way to wind down at the end of the day... :wink:
