Tango Till They're Sore - Tom Waits

    Well you play that tarantella all the hounds will start to roar
    The boys all go to hell and then the Cubans hit the floor
    They drive along the pipeline, they tango 'til they're sore
    They take apart their nightmares and they leave them by the door
    Let me fall out of the window with confetti in my hair
    Deal out Jacks or Better on a blanket by the stairs
    I'll tell you all my secrets, but I lie about my past
    And send me off to bed for evermore

    Make sure they play my theme song, I guess daisies will have to do
    Just get me to New Orleans and paint shadows on the pews
    Turn the spit on that pig and kick the drum and let me down
    Put my clarinet beneath your bed 'til I get back in town
    Let me fall out of the window with confetti in my hair
    Deal out Jacks or Better on a blanket by the stairs
    I'll tell you all my secrets, but I lie about my past
    So send me off to bed for evermore

    Just make sure she's all in calico and the color of a doll
    Wave the flag on Cadillac day, and a skillet on the wall
    Cut me a switch or hold your breath 'til the sun goes down
    Write my name on the hood, send me off to another town, and just
    And just let me fall out of the window with confetti in my hair
    Deal out Jacks or Better on a blanket by the stairs
    Tell you all my secrets, but I lie about my past
    Will you send me off to bed for evermore

    Fall out of the window with confetti in my hair
    Deal out Jacks or Better on a blanket by the stairs
    I'll tell you all my secrets, but I lie about my past
    Send me off to bed for evermore, send me off to bed for evermore
