Heartattack And Vine Lyrics - Used Songs (1973-1980) - Tom Waits

Liar liar with your pants on fire 

White spades hangin' on the telephone wire 

Gamblers reevaluate along the dotted line 

You'll never recognize yourself on heartattack and vine 

Doctor, lawyer, beggar man thief 

Philly Joe remarkable looks on in disbelief 

If you want a taste of madness, you'll have to wait in line 

You'll probably see someone you know on heartattack and vine 

Boney's high on china white, Shorty found a punk 

Don't you know there ain't no devil, there's just God when he's drunk 

Well this stuff will probably kill you, let's do another line 

What you say you meet me down on heartattack and vine 

See that little Jersey girl in the see-through top 

With the peddle pushers sucking on a soda pop 

Well I bet she's still a virgin but it's only twenty-five 'til nine 

You can see a million of 'em on heartattack and vine

Better off in Iowa against your scrambled eggs 

Than crawling down Cahuenga on a broken pair of legs 

You'll find your ignorance is blissful every goddamn time 

Your're waitin' for the RTD on heartattack and vine 

Boney's high on china white, Shorty found a punk 

Don't you know there ain't no devil, there's just God when he's drunk 

Well this stuff will probably kill you, let's do another line 

What you say you meet me down on heartattack and vine 

Liar liar with your pants on fire 

White spades hangin' on the telephone wire 

Gamblers reevaluate along the dotted line 

You'll never recognize yourself on heartattack and vine 

Doctor, lawyer, beggar man thief 

Philly Joe remarkable looks on in disbelief 

If you want a taste of madness, you'll have to wait in line 

You'll probably see someone you know on heartattack and vine
