    lyrics
    All night long on the broken glass
    livin in a medicine chest
    mediteromanian hotel back
    sprawled across a roll top desk
    the monkey rode the blade on an
    overhead fan
    they paint the donkey blue if you pay
    I got a telephone call from Istanbul
    my baby's coming home today
    will you sell me one of those if I shave my head
    get me out of town is what fireball said
    never trust a man in a blue trench coat
    never drive a car when you're dead
    Saturday's a festival Friday's a gem
    dye your hair yellow
    and raise your hem
    follow me to beulah's on
    dry creek road
    I got to wear the hat that my baby done sewed
    take me down to buy a tux
    on red rose bear
    got to cut a hole in the day
    I got a telephone call from Istanbul
    my baby's coming home today

    This song sounds like being a drunken teenager in the late 50s and wandering into a dark, sullen tiki bar that's been there since the 30s.
    It's the band that's playing on a very dangerous episode of Happy Days.

    This isn't music, it's a soul experience! A shock to the system! I tried to read the lyrics, but they read almost uncomprehensive, until this sawbrushed drunken voice spitting them out like broken glass, and turn them into a meaning which words can't express. There's a beauty beyond, which only parts inside of you can decode. Then I realize...he's a genius, making even the best artists deaf and dumb in comparison. There'll be plenty of music and artists, but only one Tom Waits.

    Hahahaha the last minute of this one has this real sock hop quality to it, it's just amazing. Dude was such an artists artist, as hipster as it fucking is. It includes so much stuff.

      Olli Olivine that double bass. Every decision he makes about each of his songs is inspired. Arrangements, musicians, choice of instruments, score, lyrics. They broke the mold when they made Waits.

      If you like this, do whatever you can to secure a copy of 'Big Time' his live concert film. Absolutely amazing, one of my most valued pieces in my music collection. Great songs, great performance, weirdness galore and spectacular arrangements. Cannot recommend it enough.

      To me Tom is more than a singer/songwriter. I consider him a skid-row cabaret artist.

    All night long on the broken glass
    livin in a medicine chest
    mediteromanian hotel back
    sprawled across a roll top desk
    the monkey rode the blade on an
    overhead fan
    they paint the donkey blue if you pay
    I got a telephone call from Istanbul
    my baby's coming home today
    will you sell me one of those if I shave my head
    get me out of town is what fireball said
    never trust a man in a blue trench coat
    never drive a car when you're dead
    Saturday's a festival
    Friday's a gem
    dye your hair yellow
    and raise your hem
    follow me to beulah's on
    dry creek road
    I got to wear the hat that my baby done sewed
    take me down to buy a tux
    on red rose bear
    got to cut a hole in the day
    I got a telephone call from Istanbul
    my baby's coming home today
