Hell Broke Luce Lyrics
Hell Broke Luce by Tom Waits
I had a good home but I left, right, left,
That big fucking bomb made me deaf, deaf,
A Humvee mechanic with his Kevlar on wrong,
Guarantee a meetup with a suicide bomb,
And hell broke Luce,
Hell broke Luce,
Dig fucking ditches in the middle of the road,
You pay a hundred dollars just for filling in the hole,
Listen to the general every goddamn word,
How many ways can you polish up a turd,
And left, right,
Left, left, right,
Left, right,
Hell broke Luce,
Hell broke Luce,
Hell broke Luce,
How is it that the only ones responsible for making this mess,
Got their sorry asses stapled to a goddamn desk,
And hell broke Luce,
Hell broke Luce,
Left, right, left,
What did you do before the war,
I was a chef, I was a chef,
And what was the name it was Jeff, Jeff
I lost my buddy and I wept, wept
I come down from the meth,
So I slept, slept,
I had a good home but I left, left,
Pants at The Wynn for a joke,
I pranced right in with a goat,
Glanced at her shins she said nope, hope,
Left, right, left,
Nimrod Bobfish have you any wool,
Get me another body bag, the body bag's full,
My face was scorched, scorched.
I miss my home, I miss my porch, porch,
Left, right, left,
Can I go home in march, march?
My stance was a chin full of soap,
And rancid dinner with the pope,
And left, right, left,
Kelly Prechoto got his thumbs blown off,
Sergio's developing a real bad cough,
Sergio's developing a real bad cough,
And hell broke Luce,
Hell broke Luce,
Hell broke Luce,
Boom went his head away and boom went Bowery,
What the hell was it that the president said?
Give them all a beautiful parade instead,
And left, right, left,
Well I was over here, America, to vote,
I left my arm in my coat,
My mum she died and never wrote,
Sat by the fire and ate a goat,
Just before he died he had a toke,
Now I'm home,
And I'm blind,
And I'm broke,
What is next?
