Kentucky Avenue - Tom Waits (汤姆·威兹)
Well Eddie Grace's Buick got four bullet holes
In the side
And Charlie Delisle is sitting
At the top of an avocado tree
Mrs Storm will stab you with a steak knife
If you step on her lawn
I got a half a pack of lucky strikes man
So come along with me
Let's fill our pockets with macadamia nuts
And go over to Bobby Goodmanson's
And jump off the roof
Well Hilda plays strip poker
With the mummers 'cross the street
Joey Navinski says she put her tongue in his mouth
And Dicky Faulkner's got a switchblade
And some gooseneck risers
That eucalyptus is a hunchback
There's a wind down from the south
So let me tie you up with kite string
I'll show you the scabs on my knee
Watch out for the broken glass
Put your shoes and socks on
And come along with me
Let's follow that fire truck
I think your house is burning down
And go down to the hobo jungle
And kill some rattlesnakes with a trowel
And we'll break all the windows
In the old Anderson place
We'll steal a bunch of boysenberries
And I'll smear 'em on your face
I'll get a dollar from my mama's purse
And buy that skull and crossbones ring
And you can wear it round your neck
On an old piece of string
Then we'll spit on Ronnie Arnold and flip him the bird
And slash the tires on the school bus
Now don't say a word
I'll take a rusty nail
And scratch your initials in my arm
I'll show you how to sneak up
On the roof of the drugstore
I'll take the spokes from your wheelchair
And a magpie's wings
And I'll tie 'em to your shoulders and your feet
I'll steal a hacksaw from my dad
And cut the braces off your legs
And we'll bury them tonight out in the cornfield
Just put a church key in your pocket
We'll hop that freight train in the hall
We'll slide all the way down the drain to
New Orleans in the fall
