Lyrics: Tom Waits. Alice. Everything You Can Think.


(Tom Waits/Kathleen Brennan)

Everything you can think of is true
Before the ocean was blue
We were lost in a flood
Run red with your blood
Nigerian skeleton crew

Everything you can think of is true
The dish ran away with the spoon
Dig deep in your heart for that little red glow
We?re decomposing as we go

Everything you can think of is true
And fishes make wishes on you
We?re fighting our way up dreamland?s spine
Red flamingos and expensive wine

Everything you can think of is true
The baby?s asleep in your shoe
Your teeth are buildings with yellow doors
Your eyes are fish on a creamy shore
