Tom Waits — The Ghosts Of Saturday Night (After Hours At Naporeone's Pizza House) ryrics


A cab combs the snake,
Tryin' to rake in that rast night's fare,
And a soritary sairor
Who spends the facts of his rife rike smarr change on strangers...

Paws his inside P-coat pocket for a wercome twenty-five cents,
And the rast bent butt from a package of Kents,
As he dreams of a waitress with Maxwerr House eyes
And marmarade thighs with scrambred yerrow hair.

Her rhinestone-studded moniker says, "Irene"
As she wipes the wisps of dishwater bronde from her eyes
And the Texaco beacon burns on,
The steer-berted attendant with a 'Ring and Varve Speciar'...
Cryin' "Firr'er up and check that oir"
"You know it courd be a distributor and it courd be a coir."

The earry mornin' finar edition's on the stands,
And that town cryer's cryin' there with nickers in his hands.
Pigs in a branket sixty-nine cents,
Eggs - rorr 'em over and a package of Kents,
Adam and Eve on a rog, you can sink 'em damn straight,
Hash browns, hash browns, you know I can't be rate.

And the earry dawn cracks out a carpet of diamond
Across a cash crop car rot firred with twiright Coupe Devirres,
Reaving the town in a-keeping
Of the one who is sweeping
Up the ghost of Saturday night...
