Tom Waits Buzz Fledderjon song lyrics

I stood on the roof, of Stuart's old Dodge

to get a better look at the Fledderjohn's lodge

Bait shop, pistols and ammo too

Nothing but books about World War II

Rottweiler, Doberman, a Pinkerton guard

I ain't allowed in Buzz Fledderjohn's yard

I ain't allowed

No, I ain't allowed

I said, I ain't allowed in Buzz Fledderjohn's yard

I seen a python swallowing a Dobermann whole

Piranha swimming in a mixing bowl

Papers full of stabbings, the sky's full of crows

She's singing in Italian while she's hanging out her clothes

Carp in the bathtub and it's raining real hard

I ain't allowed in Buzz Fledderjohn's yard

I said, that I ain't allowed

No, I ain't allowed

No, I ain't allowed in Buzz Fledderjohn's yard.

Well, a sailor's ringing doorbells, the sinner's in the pew

Weather vane squeaking to the west

I seen the cliffs of Dover and the deepest ocean blue

One thing in the world I can't recommend to you

Cause I ain't allowed

I said, I ain't allowed

No, I ain't allowed in Buzz Fledderjohn's yard

I said, I ain't allowed

No, I ain't allowed

I ain't allowed in Buzz Fledderjohn's yard

I ain't allowed

I ain't allowed

I said, I ain't allowed in Buzz Fledderjohn's yard
