The Man Who Couldn't Cry - Loudon Wainwright III[00:00:00]

There once was a man who just couldn't cry[00:00:15]

He hadn't cried for years & for years[00:00:23]

Napalmed babies & the movie love story[00:00:30]

For instance could not produce tears[00:00:38]

As a child he had cried as all children will[00:00:44]

But at some point the tear ducts ran dry[00:00:52]

He grew to be a man & the feces hit the fan[00:00:59]

Things got bad but he couldn't cry[00:01:05]

His dog got run over his wife up & left him[00:01:15]

After that he got sacked from his job[00:01:23]

Lost an arm in the war was laughed at by a whore[00:01:29]

But still not a sniffle & sob[00:01:37]

Well his novel was refused & his movie was banned[00:01:44]

And his biog broad way show was a flop[00:01:52]

He was sent off to jail you guessed it no bail[00:01:59]

But still not a dribble or drop[00:02:07]

In jail he was beaten bullied & buggered[00:02:13]

And made to make licence plates[00:02:22]

Water & bread was all he was fed[00:02:29]

But not once did a tear stain his face[00:02:36]

Doctors were called in scientists too[00:02:43]

Theologians were last & practically least[00:02:50]

They all agreed sure enough[00:02:57]

He was no cream puff[00:03:01]

But in fact an insensitive beast[00:03:06]

He was removed from jail & placed in a place[00:03:42]

For the insensitive & the insane[00:03:50]

He played lots of chess & he made lots of friends[00:03:57]

And he wept every time it would train[00:04:05]

Once it rained 40 days & it rained 40 nights[00:04:10]

And he cried and he cried and he cried and he cried[00:04:19]

On the 41st day he just passed away[00:04:26]

He just dehydrated & died[00:04:34]

He went up to heaven located his dog[00:04:45]

Not only that but he rejoined his arm[00:04:53]

Down below all the critics they took it all back[00:05:00]

Cancer robbed the whore of her charm[00:05:09]

His ex wife died of stretch marks his ex employer went broke[00:05:15]

The theologians were finally found out[00:05:22]

Right down to the ground the prison burned down[00:05:30]

The earth suffered perpetual drought[00:05:38]
