I like my town
with a little drop of poison.
Nobody knows
They're linin' up to go insane.
I'm all alone.
I smoke my friends down to the filter.
But, I feel much cleaner
After it rains.
And, she left in the fall
That's her picture on the wall..
She always had that little drop of poison.
Did the Devil
Make the World
While God was sleeping.
You'll never get a wish from a bone.
Another long goodbye
And a hundred sailors.
That deep blue sky
Is my home.
And, she left in the fall
That's her picture on the wall.
She always had that little drop of poison.
Well, a rat
Always knows
When he's in with weasels.
Here you lose a little everyday
Well, I remember
When a million was a million.
They all have ways
To make you pay.
And, she left in the fall.
That's her picture on the wall.
She always had that little drop of poison."
--- Composed by Kathleen Brennan and Tom Waits.
