Soldier's Things Songtext

von Angela McCluskey

(Tom Waits Cover / The Things we do Bonus Tracks)Davenports, kettle drums
Swallow tail coats
Table cloths
Patent leather shoes
Bathing suits
Bowling balls
Clarinets and rings
All this radio really needs
Is a fuse

A tinker, a tailor
A soldier's things
His rifle, his boots full of rocks
Oh and this one is for bravery
This one is for me
Everything's a dollar
In this box

Cuff links, hub caps
Trophies, paperbacks
It's good transportation
But the brakes aren't so hot
Neck tie and boxing gloves
This jackknife is rusted
You can pound that dent out on the hood

A tinker, a tailor
A soldier's things
His rifle, his boots full of rocks
Oh and this one is for bravery
And this one is for me
Everything's a dollar
In this boxA tinker, a tailor
A soldier's things
His rifle, his boots full of rocks
Oh and this one is for bravery
This one is for me
Everything's a dollar
Everything's a dollar
Everything's a dollar
In this box
