Picking Up After You Lyrics - One From The Heart (soundtrack) - Tom Waits

Here comes the bride and there goes the groom 

Looks like a hurricane went through this room 

Smells like a pool hall, where's my other shoe? 

And I'm sick and tired of pickin' up after you 

Looks like you spent the night in a trench 

And tell me, how long have you been combing 

Your hair with a wrench? 

Blue roses are dead and the violets are too 

And I'm sick and tired of pickin' up after you

Well, I've told you before, I won't tell you again 

You don't defrost the icebox with a ball point pen 

This railroad apartment is held together with glue 

And I'm sick and tired of pickin' up after you 

Because I know, I'm being swindled, I never bargained for this 

Once more, you never cared about me 

Why don't you get your own place, so you can live like you do? 

And I'm sick and tired of pickin' up after you 

Photos 

Take all your relatives and all of your shoes 

Believe me, I'll really swing when you're gone 

I'll be living on chicken and wine after we're through 

With someone, I pick up after you 

With someone, I'll pick up after you 

With someone, I pick up after you 

With someone, I'll pick up after you
