Tom Waits

red pants and the sugarman in, the temple street gloom, drinkin chivas
regal in a four dollar room, just another dead soldier in a powder blue night,
sugarman says baby everythings alright, goin downtown down downtown.
montclaire de havelin doin the st. vitus dance, lookin for someone to chop
the lumber in his pants, how am i gonna unload all of this ice and all this
mink, all the traffic in the street but its so hard to think, goin downtown
down downtown.
frankies wearin lipstick pierre cardin, i swear to god i seen him holdin
hands with jimmy bond, sallys high on crank and hungry for some sweets, shes
fem in the sheets but shes butch in the streets, goin downtown down
downtown.
its the cool of the evening the suns goin down, i want to hold you in my
arms i want to push you around, i want to break your bottle and spill out all
your charms, come on baby well set off all the burglar alarms, goin downtown
down downtown.
red pants and the sugarman in the temple, drinkin chivas regal in a four
dollar room, just another dead soldier in a powder blue night, red pants turns
to sugarman and says everythings alright, goin downtown down downtown.
