Cemetery Polka
Tom Waits
...CEMETERY POLKA... by Tom Waits

*from 'Rain Dogs' (1985)*

Uncle Vernon,  Uncle Vernon,
Inde-pendent as a hog on ice.
He's a big-shot, down there at the slaughterhouse,
Plays ac-cordion for Mis-ter Weiss.

Uncle Biltmore,  and Uncle William,
Made a million during World War II.
But they're tightwads, and they're cheapskates,
And they'll never give a dime to you.

Interlude:

Auntie Mame has gone in-sane; she lives,
In the doorway of an old ho-tel.
And the radio,
Is playing opera,
All she ever says is; "go to Hell".

Uncle Violet,  flew as pilot,
And there ain't no pretty girls in France.
Now he runs a tiny little bookie joint;
They say he never keeps it in his pants.

Uncle Bill will never leave a will,
And the tumour is as big as an egg.
Has a mistress; she's Puerto Rican,
And I heard she has a woo-den leg.

Interlude:

Uncle Phil can't live without his pills;
 He has emphy-sema and he's almost blind.
And we must find out where the money is,
Get it now, before he loses his mind.

Uncle Vernon,  Uncle Vernon,
Inde-pendent as a hog on ice.
He's a big-shot, down there at the slaughterhouse,
Plays ac-cordion for Mis-ter Weiss.
