Soldier's Things Lyrics - Swordfishtrombones - Tom Waits

Davenports and kettle drums 

and swallow tail coats 

table cloths and patent leather shoes 

bathing suits and bowling balls 

and clarinets and rings 

and all this radio really 

needs is a fuse 

a tinker, a tailor 

a soldier's things 

his rifle, his boots full of rocks 

and this one is for bravery 

and this one is for me 

and everything's a dollar 

in this box

Cuff links and hub caps 

trophies and paperbacks 

it's good transportation 

but the brakes aren't so hot 

neck tie and boxing gloves 

this jackknife is rusted 

you can pound that dent out 

on the hood 

a tinker, a tailor 

a soldier's things 

his rifle, his boots full of rocks 

oh and this one is for bravery 

and this one is for me 

and everything's a dollar 

in this box
