Tom Waits - Everything Goes to Hell

Why be sweet, why be careful, why be kind?

A man has only one thing on his mind

Why ask politely, why go lightly, why say please?

They only want to get you on your knees

There's a few things that I never could believe

A woman when she weeps

A merchant when he swears

A thief who says he'll pay

A lawyer when he cares

A snake when he is sleeping

A drunkard when he prays

I don't believe you go to heaven when you're good

And everything goes to hell, anyway

Laissez-faire mi amour, ce la vie

Shall I return to shore or swim back out to sea?

The world don't care what a sailor does in town

It's all hanging in the windows by the pound

I don't believe you go to heaven when you're good

Everything goes to hell, anyway

I only want to hear you purr and to hear you moan

You have another man who brings the money home

I don't want dishes in the sink

Don't ask me what I feel or what I think

There's a few things that I never could believe

A woman when she weeps

A merchant when he swears

A thief who says he'll pay

A lawyer when he cares

A snake when he is sleeping

A drunkard when he prays

I don't believe you go to heaven when you're good

Everything goes to hell, anyway

Everything goes to hell, anyway

Oh, everything goes to hell, anyway
