Eyeball Kid Lyrics - Mule Variations - Tom Waits

Well zenora bariella 

And coriander pyle 

They had sixteen children 

In the usual style 

They had a curio museum 

And they had no guile 

All they ever wanted 

Was a show biz child 

So on the 7th of dec. 1949 

They got what 

Theyd been wishing for 

All of the time 

He grew up in a trailer 

By the time he was 9 

He rolled off to join 

The circus... telling fortunes 

On the side

Hail hail, the Eyeball Kid 

Well the first time I saw him 

Was a saigon jail 

Cost me 27 dollars 

Just to go his bail 

I said your name will 

Be in lights... 

And thats no doubt 

But you got to have 

A manager thats what 

Its all about 

People would point 

People would stare 

Ill always be here 

To protect you and to 

Cut down on the glare 

I know you cant speak 

I know you cant sign 

So cry right here on 

The dotted line

Hail hail, the Eyeball Kid 

Well he was born with out a body 

Not even a brow 

I made the kid a promise 

I made the kid a vow 

Hes not conventionally handsome 

Hell never be tall 

He said all you got to do is 

Book me into carnegie hall 

Hail hail, the Eyeball Kid 

Hes just a little bitty thing 

Hes just a little guy 

But women go crazy 

For the big blue eye 

They say how does he 

Dream? how does he think 

When he cant ever speak 

And he cant ever blink? 

I said hail hail, the Eyeball Kid 

Hail hail, the Eyeball Kid 

Give it up and throw me down 

A couple of quic 

Everybody wants to see 

The Eyeball Kid 

How dies he dream 

How does he think 

When he cant even speak 

And he cant even blink 

We are all lost in the 

Wilderness were as 

Blind as can be 

He came down to teach us 

How to really see 

Hallelujah 

Hallelujah 

Hallelujah 

So give it up and throw 

Me down a couple of quid 

Everybody wants to see 

The Eyeball Kid
