T / Tom Waits lyrics / Cemetery Polka


Cemetery Polka

by Tom Waits

album: Rain Dogs (1985)

Uncle Vernon 
Uncle Vernon 
Independent as a 
Hog on ice 
He's a big shot down there 
At the slaughterhouse 
He plays accordion 
For Mr. Weiss 
Uncle Bittmore and 
Uncle William 
Made a 
Million during 
World War II 
But they're tightwads 
And they're 
Cheap skates 
And they'll never give a dime to you 
Auntie Mame 
Has gone 
Insane 
She lives in 
The doorway of an old hotel 
And the 
Radio's playing opera and 
All she ever says 
Is go to Hell. 
Uncle Violet 
Flew as pilot 
He said there 
Ain't no pretty 
Girls in France 
Now he runs a 
Tiny little 
Bookie joint they say 
He never 
Keeps it in his pants 
Uncle Bill 
Will never leave a will 
And the tumour is as 
Big as an egg 
He has a mistress 
She's a Puerto Rican 
And I heard she has 
A wooden leg. 
Uncle Phil 
Can't live without his pills 
He has emphysema and 
He's almost blind 
And we must find out 
Where the money is 
Get it now 
Before he loses his mind
