Franks Wild Years
Tom Waits
intro: | | | | | Well frank settled down in the Valley and he hung his wild years on a nail that he drove through his wife’s forehead. C9aug He sold used office furniture out F13 Ab13#11 there on San Fernando Road and assumed a $30000 loan at 15 1/4 % and put a down payment on a little two bedroom place. His wife was a spent piece of used jet trash Made good bloody mary’s kept her mouth shut most of the time had a little Chihuahua named Carlos that had some kind of skin disease and was totally blind. C9aug They had a thoroughly modern kitchen; F13 Ab13#11 self-cleaning oven (the whole bit) Frank drove a little sedan. They were so happy. One night Frank was on his way home from work stopped at the liquor store picked up a couple of Mickey’s Big Mouth’s. Drank ’em in the car on his way to the Shell station; he got a gallon of gas in a can. Drove home doused everything in the house torched it. C9aug Parked across the street laughing F13 Ab13#11 watching it burn all Halloween orange and chimney red. Then frank put on a top forty station got on the Hollywood freeway headed North. Never could stand that dog. Outro: | | | D7b9 | | C7b9 | | Db7b5 | / | | #9#5 | | ||If you like it please rate it||
