Circus - Tom Waits[00:00:01]

We put up our tent on a dark[00:00:04]

Green knoll outside of town by[00:00:07]

The train tracks and a seagull dump[00:00:09]

Topping the bill was Horse Face Ethel[00:00:13]

And her Marvellous Pigs In Satin[00:00:17]

We pounded our stakes in the ground[00:00:21]

All powder brown[00:00:23]

And the branches spread like scary[00:00:26]

Fingers reaching[00:00:28]

We were in a pasture outside Kankakee[00:00:32]

And One Eyed Myra the queen of[00:00:36]

The galley who trained the[00:00:38]

Ostrich and the camels[00:00:40]

She looked at me squinty with her[00:00:44]

One good eye in a Roy Orbison[00:00:46]

T-shirt as she bottle fed[00:00:49]

An orangutan named Tripod[00:00:52]

And then there was[00:00:56]

Yodeling Elaine the[00:00:57]

Queen of the air who wore a[00:00:59]

Dollar sign medallion and she[00:01:02]

Had a tiny bubble of spittle[00:01:05]

Around her nostril and a[00:01:07]

Little rusty tear for she had[00:01:08]

Lassoed and lost another[00:01:12]

Tipsy sailor[00:01:14]

And over in[00:01:18]

The burnt yellow tent[00:01:18]

By the frozen tractor the[00:01:20]

Music was like electric sugar[00:01:22]

And Zuzu Bolin played[00:01:26]

Stavin Chain and Mighty[00:01:28]

Tiny on the saw and he[00:01:32]

Threw his head back with a[00:01:35]

Mouth full of gold teeth[00:01:37]

And they played Lopsided heart[00:01:38]

And Moon over Dog Street[00:01:40]

And by the time they played Moanin Low[00:01:43]

I was soakin wet and wild eyed[00:01:46]

And Doctor Bliss slipped me a[00:01:52]

Preparation and I fell asleep with[00:01:54]

Livery Stable Blues in my ear[00:01:57]

And me and Molley Hoey drank[00:02:27]

Pruno and Koolaid and she had a[00:02:29]

Tattoo gun made out of a cassette[00:02:34]

Motor and a guitar string and[00:02:36]

She soaked a hanky in 3 Roses[00:02:41]

And rubbed it on the spot[00:02:44]

And drew a rickety heart and[00:02:47]

A bent arrow and it hurt like hell[00:02:48]

And Funeral Wells spun[00:02:54]

Poodle Murphy on the target[00:02:57]

As he threw his hardware [00:02:59]

Only once in Sheboygan did he miss[00:03:03]

At a matinee on Diamond Pier and[00:03:07]

She'd never let him forget it[00:03:11]

They were doing two shows and she[00:03:14]

Had a high fever and he took[00:03:17]

Off a piece of her ear and[00:03:20]

Tip Little told her she should[00:03:22]

Leave the bum[00:03:25]

But Poodle said He fetched me[00:03:27]

Last time I run [00:03:29]

But I'd like to hammer this ring into a bullet[00:03:33]

And I wish I had some whiskey and a gun[00:03:38]

My dear[00:03:42]

And I wish I had some whiskey and a gun[00:03:44]

My dear[00:03:48]
