Song | Orange Claw Hammer |
Artist | Captain Beefheart |
Album | Trout Mask Replica |
作词 : VanVliet | |
A thick cloud caught a piper clubs tail | |
The match struck blue on a railroad rail | |
The old puff horse was just pullin' through | |
And a man wore a peg leg forever | |
I'm on the bum where the hobos run | |
The air breaks with filthy chatter | |
Oh, I don't care there's no place there | |
I don't think it matters | |
My skin's blazin' through | |
And my clothes in tatters | |
And the railroad looked | |
Like a 'Y' up the hill of ladders | |
One shoe fell on the gravel | |
One stick poked down | |
Gray of age fell down on a pair of ears | |
An eagle shined through my hole watch pocket | |
A gingham girl, baby girl | |
Passed me by in tears | |
A jack rabbit raised his folded ears | |
A beautiful sagebrush, jack rabbit | |
And an oriole sang like an orange | |
His breast full a worms | |
And his tail clawed the evenin' like a hammer | |
His wings took the air like a bomber | |
And my rain can caught me a cup a water | |
When I got into town | |
Odd jobs mam, ah, yer horse, | |
I'll fodder | |
I'm the round house man | |
I once was yer father | |
A little up the road a wooden | |
Candy stripe barber pole | |
And above it read a sign, ' | |
Painless Parker' | |
Lic, licorice twisted around under a fly | |
And a youngster cocked her eye | |
God before me if | |
I'm not crazy | |
Is my daughter | |
Come little one with yer little dimpled fingers | |
Gimme one and | |
I'll buy you a cherry phosphate | |
Take you down t' the foamin' brine and water | |
And show you the wooden tits | |
On the Goddess with the pole out s'full sail | |
That tempted away yer peg legged father | |
I was shanghaied by a high hat beaver mustache man | |
And his pirate friend | |
I woke up in vomit and beer in a banana bin | |
And a soft lass with brown skin | |
Bore me seven babies with snappin' black eyes | |
And beautiful ebony skin | |
And here it is | |
I'm with you my daughter | |
Thirty years away can make a seaman's eyes | |
A round house man's eyes flow out water | |
Salt water |
