#* My part of the world Knows not who you are A talent beyond words Rhyming life in your lyrics Effortless you sing your songs Tom Waits Why I never heard you before Now I love your songs And want to listen to some more Forevermore Talk not about me like this Lady you never heard me before And now you speak of my songs As if you been a fan of, all life Don’t  flatter me now In this world there is misery enough As I drive down the ghost town Fearless eyes and lies, I see Scary for people to cope So, in my songs I sing of hope **“Hey little bird, fly away home Your house is on fire, your children alone Hey little bird, fly away home Your house is on fire, your children alone”***#
