Starving In The Belly Of A Whale Lyrics

Artist: Tom Waits (Buy Tom Waits CDs)
Album: Blood Money

Your life is whittled
Time's a riddle; man's a fiddle
That it plays on
When the day breaks
And the earth quakes; your life's a mistake
All day long
Who gives a good god damn
You'll never get out alive
There's no meaning; don't go dreaming
A man must test his mettle
In a crooked old world
Starving in the Belly
Starving in the Belly
Starving in the Belly of a Whale
