Album | Big Time |
(tom waits) | |
I have come 500 miles just to see a halo | |
Come from st. petersburg, scarlett and me | |
Well I open my eyes, | |
I was blind as can be | |
When you give a man luck, he must fall in the sea | |
And she wants you to steal and get caught | |
For she loves you for all that you are not | |
When you're falling down, falling down | |
When you're falling down, falling down, falling down | |
You forget all the roses, don't come around on sunday | |
She's not gonna choose you for standing so tall | |
Go on and take a swig of that poison and like it | |
And don't ask for silverware, don't ask for nothing | |
Go on and put your ear to the ground | |
You know you will be hearing that sound......falling down. | |
You're falling down, falling down | |
Falling down, falling down, falling down | |
When you're falling down, falling down, falling down | |
Go on down and see that wrecking ball come swinging on along | |
Everyone knew that hotel was a goner | |
They broke all the windows, they took all the door knobs | |
And they hauled it away in a couple of days | |
Now someone yell timber and take off your hat | |
It's a lot smaller down here on the ground | |
You're falling down, falling down, falling down | |
Falling down, falling down, falling down | |
Someone's falling down, falling down, falling down | |
Falling down, falling down, falling down |
tom waits | |
I have come 500 miles just to see a halo | |
Come from st. petersburg, scarlett and me | |
Well I open my eyes, | |
I was blind as can be | |
When you give a man luck, he must fall in the sea | |
And she wants you to steal and get caught | |
For she loves you for all that you are not | |
When you' re falling down, falling down | |
When you' re falling down, falling down, falling down | |
You forget all the roses, don' t come around on sunday | |
She' s not gonna choose you for standing so tall | |
Go on and take a swig of that poison and like it | |
And don' t ask for silverware, don' t ask for nothing | |
Go on and put your ear to the ground | |
You know you will be hearing that sound...... falling down. | |
You' re falling down, falling down | |
Falling down, falling down, falling down | |
When you' re falling down, falling down, falling down | |
Go on down and see that wrecking ball come swinging on along | |
Everyone knew that hotel was a goner | |
They broke all the windows, they took all the door knobs | |
And they hauled it away in a couple of days | |
Now someone yell timber and take off your hat | |
It' s a lot smaller down here on the ground | |
You' re falling down, falling down, falling down | |
Falling down, falling down, falling down | |
Someone' s falling down, falling down, falling down | |
Falling down, falling down, falling down |
