PURPLE AVENUE

TOM WAITS

Paroles et musique :Tom Waits

Tonalité :

I slow d own Purple A venues

to march ar ound in A pril's s hoes

Weather v anes rem ind

of the s ummetimes that I 've left beh ind

The money's g one for a uld lang s yne

I s pent on Eastern S tandard Time

What ever h appened t o my r ole?

September f ell right t hrough the h ole

All I've g ot is em pty p o-ckets n ow

Why does A ugust t ry so h ard

to hoist me o n my o wn petard?

I've l earned one thing f rom losing her

That an o unce of prev ention's worth a p ound of c ure

The shadows f all I cannot t hread

the tenor o f the t hings you s aid

All that's l eft is f lesh and b one

The lights are o n but n o one's h ome

All I've g ot is e mpty p ocket s no w

I s pill myself ano ther drink

I count the w hiskers i n the s ink

The o rchest ra is b lind

But I've n ever been the w orrying k ind

Subsequent ly and f urtherm ore

I'll sleep right h ere on the d raining b oard

I'll n ever b e par oled

I like to d rink 'em w hile they're c old

All I've g ot is e mpty p ocket s now
