Fantastic Tomb

Lyrics for Fantastic Tomb

"Hello," he smiled and reached out his hand "Your troubles," he said, "I can understand" Ignored by all those pretty-looking people in suits In a bar on 10th street, I drank an Deuce Hey, aren't you sick of the way they look down at you? It's time you and I collect our dues There's a man who's worth more than a country could make And if you come near a good job, I'll give you half the take Well, should I do it? It's so temptin', and I've got nothin' to lose If I had something, yeah, they would just take that too It's okay, yeah, I'll do it Smiley's big plan, he's a driver for that man The third story window on the left, the lock was jammed It opened, no joke, just like he had planned So we walked downstairs with bags in our hands There was crystal vase, oh, good paintings, too And a silver horse that looked right at you And in the bedroom, no one sleeping there Just a big, empty bed covered in fur Crept our way to the cellar door Once he'd seen the man, kept gold there before He told me, "Open it up, let's see where it lies" But then I did, he smiled, then kicked me inside Locked in the cellar, taken for a ride But I did it Feet in the air, then I hit the ground Seems like these stairs are only good for falling down But I did it, I did it What you gonna do when the money's gone And everyone you know is dead? Then you're standin' naked all alone, just think about the life you led Your brain stops followin' and you gotta choke And your nasty guitar just broke But I found words on the wall, I read them, it said "Get along Get alo-ong, get along, little dog, get along" The silver horse in your house is dancin' all around your bed When you tell that thing to leave, it kicks you upside the head Yeah, you left me here, but I love you, and I'm doin' fine on my own I take a drink from behind the door and I sing my favorite song Get along, get alo-ong Get along, little dog, get along Get along, get alo-ong Get along, little dog, get along I'm the one that's smilin' now, my painting up on the wall Me and my Eleanor In a thousand years, they'll find me here My fantastic tomb Fantastic tomb, come on, see it Get along, get alo-ong Get along, little dog, get along Get along, get alo-ong Get along, little dog, get along, yeah
