Such A Scream Lyrics - Bone Machine - Tom Waits

Well pale face said 

to the eyeball kid 

she just goes clank and boom and steam 

a halo, wings, horns, and a tail 

shovelling coal inside my dreams 

there are no laws 

she's made of cream 

she's such a scream 

Qui bon tres bien, nails in cement 

a donnie gal from mortal clay 

the plow is red 

the well is full, 

inside the dollhouse of her skull 

a cheetah coat fills up with steam 

she's such a scream 

All crooked lines 

her fireplace 

a milktrain so clean 

machine gun haste 

you'll ride the only wall of shame 

and drag that chain across the state 

her lips are red 

she is the queen 

she's such a scream... 

Tom waits: vocal, guitar, percussion 

brain: drums 

ralph carney: alto & tenor sax
