RAIN DOGS

Singapore

We sail tonight for Singapore,

we're all as mad as hatters here

I've fallen for a tawny Moor,

took off to the land of Nod

Drank with all the Chinamen,

walked the sewers of Paris

I danced along a colored wind,

dangled from a rope of sand

You must say goodbye to me

We sail tonight for Singapore,

don't fall asleep while you're ashore

Cross your heart and hope to die

when you hear the children cry

Let marrow bone and cleaver choose

while making feet for children shoes

Through the alley, back from hell,

when you hear that steeple bell

You must say goodbye to me

Wipe him down with gasoline

'til his arms are hard and mean

From now on boys this iron boat's your home

So heave away, boys

We sail tonight for Singapore,

take your blankets from the floor

Wash your mouth out by the door,

the whole town's made of iron ore

Every witness turns to steam,

they all become Italian dreams

Fill your pockets up with earth,

get yourself a dollar's worth

Away boys, away boys, heave away

The captain is a one-armed dwarf,

he's throwing dice along the wharf

In the land of the blind

the one-eyed man is king, so take this ring

We sail tonight for Singapore,

we're all as mad as hatters here

I've fallen for a tawny Moor,

took off to the land of Nod

Drank with all the Chinamen,

walked the sewers of Paris

I drank along a colored wind,

I dangled from a rope of sand

You must say goodbye to me
