Tom Waits - “Starving In The Belly Of A Whale“

Listen to the full album: “Starving In The Belly Of A Whale“ by Tom Waits from the album ’Blood Money’ Lyrics Life is whittled Life’s a riddle Man’s a fiddle that life plays on When the day breaks, and the earth quakes Life’s a mistake all day long Tell me, who gives a good goddamn You’ll never get out alive Don’t go dreaming Don’t go scheming A man must test his mettle In a crooked ol’ world Starving in the Belly Starving in the Belly Starving in the Belly of a whale Starving in the belly Starving in the belly Starving in the belly of a whale Don’t take my word Just look skyward They that dance must pay the fiddler Sky is darkening Dogs are barking But the caravan moves on Tell me who gives a good goddamn You’ll never get get out alive Don’t go dreaming Don’t go scheming A man must test his mettle In crooked ol world Starving in the Belly As the crow flies It’s there the truth lies At the bottom of the well E-o-leven goes to heaven Bless the dead here as the rain falls Don’t trust a bull’s horn A doberman’s tooth A runaway horse or me Don’t be greedy, don’t be needy If you live in hope you’re Dancing to a terrible tune Starving in the Belly, Starving in the Belly Official Site: Official Store: Facebook: Twitter: #tomwaits #bloodmoney
