(tom waits/k. brennan)



Well i'm goin' out west

Where the wind blows tall

'cause tony franciosa

Used to date my ma

They got some money out there

They're giving it away

I'm gonna do what i want

Do what i want

And i'm gonna get paid



Little brown sausages

Lying in the sand

I ain't no extra baby

I'm a leading man

Well my parole officer

Will be proud of me

With my olds 88

And the devil on a leash

My olds 88

And the devil on a leash



Well i know karate, voodoo too

I'm gonna make myself available to you

I don't need no make up

I got real scars

I got hair on my chest

I look good without a shirt



Well i don't lose my composure

In a high speed chase

Well my friends think i'm ugly

I got a masculine face

I got some dragstrip courage

I can really drive a bed

I'm gonna change my name

To hannibal or maybe

Just rex

Change my name to hannibal

Or maybe just rex



I'm gonna drive all night

Take some speed

I'm gonna wait for the sun

To shine down on me

I cut a hole in my roof

In the shape of a heart



And i'm goin' out west

Where they'll appreciate me

Goin' out west

Goin' out west
