Starving In The Belly Of The Whale

Lyrics
Life is whittled Life's a riddle Man's a fiddle that life plays on When the day breaks, and the earthquakes Life's a mistake all day long Tell me, who gives a good goddamn You'll never get out alive Don't go dreaming Don't go scheming A man must test his mettle In a crooked ol' world Starving in the belly Starving in the belly Starving in the belly of a whale Starving in the belly Starving in the belly Starving in the belly of a whale Don't take my word Just look skyward They that dance must pay the fiddler Sky is darkening Dogs are barking But the caravan moves on Tell me who gives a good goddamn You'll never get get out alive Don't go dreaming Don't go scheming A man must test his mettle In crooked ol' world Starving in the belly Starving in the belly Starving in the belly of a whale Starving in the belly Starving in the belly Starving in the belly of a whale As the crow flies It's there the truth lies At the bottom of the well E-o-leven goes to heaven Bless the dead here as the rain falls Don't trust a bull's horn A doberman's tooth A runaway horse or me Don't be greedy, don't be needy If you live in hope you're Dancing to a terrible tune Starving in the belly Starving in the belly
