How's It Gonna End by Tom Waits


He had 3 whole dollars

A worn out car

And a wife who was

Leaving for good

Life's made of trouble

Worry pain and struggle

She wrote good bye in

The dust on the hood

They found a a map of Missouri

Lipstick on the glass

They must of left

In the middle of the night

 

And I want to know

The same thing

Everyone wants to know

How it going to end?

 

Behind a smoke colored

Curtain the girl

Disappeared the found out

The ring was a fake

A tree born crooked

Will never grow straight

She sunk like a hammer

In to the lake

A long lost letter and

And old leaky boat

Promises are never meant

To keep

 

And I want to know

The same thing

Everyone wants to know

How it going to end?

The barn leaned over

The vultures dried their wings

The moon climbed up an empty sky

The sun sank down

Behind the tree

On the hill

There's a killer and he's coming

Through the rye

But maybe he's the Father

Of that lost little girl

It's hard to tell in this light

 

And I want to know

The same thing

Everyone wants to know

How it going to end?

 

Drag your wagon and your plow

Over the bones of the dead

Out among the roses

And the weeds

You can never go back

And the answer is no

And wishing for it only

Makes it bleed

 

Joel Tornabene was broken

On the wheel

Shane and Bum

Mahoney on the lamb

The grain was as gold

As Sheila's hair

All the way from Liverpool

With all we could steal

He was robbed of twenty dollars

His body found stripped

Cast into the harbour

There and drowned

 

And I want to know

The same thing

Everyone wants to know

How it going to end?

 

The sirens are snaking their

Way up the hill

It's last call somewhere in

The world

The reptiles blend in with the

Color of the street

Life is sweet at the edge

Of a razor

And down in the front row of

An old picture show

The old man is asleep

As the credits start to roll

 

And I want to know

The same thing

Everyone wants to know

How it going to end?
