Singapore Lyrics by Tom Waits
We sail tonight for Singapore
We’re all as mad as hatters here

We sail tonight for Singapore
We’re all as mad as hatters here
Broken bicycles
Old busted chains
Well, take an eye for an eye
A tooth for a tooth
Wasted and wounded, it ain’t what the moon did
I’ve got what I paid for now
Rattle big black bones
In the danger zone
Well I left New York
In nineteen forty-nine
With a suitcase, and a couple of bucks
I’m gonna skip this rhubarb, slide down the boulevard
I don’t care if she never comes back
Sing: Candy Apple Red
I’m leavin’ my family
And leavin’ my friends
Hush, a wild violet, hush, a band of gold
Hush, you’re in a story I heard somebody told
