Song by Tom Waits<br /><br>

Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn<br>

The dish ran away with the spoon<br>

Home again, home again Saturday morn<br>

He never gets up before noon<br>

<br>

Well, she used to render you legal and tender<br>

When you used to send her your promises, boy<br>

A diller, a dollar, unbutton your collar<br>

And come out and holler out all of your noise<br>

<br>

So Little Boy Blue, come blow your top<br>

And cut it right down to the quick<br>

Don't sit home and cry on the Fourth of July<br>

Around now you're hittin' the bricks<br>

<br>

So abracadabra, now she disappeared<br>

Everything's Canada Dry<br>

So watch your behavior and rattle your cage<br>

With a bottle of Bourbon, goodbye<br>

<br>

So Little Boy Blue lost little Bo Peep<br>

She fell through a hole in the nest<br>

Now ain't it peculiar that she's finally cooled <br>

Your big wheels just like all of the rest<br>

<br>

Whenever it rains, the umbrellas complain<br>

They always get played for a chump<br>

So mark it and strike it, she's history now<br>

And you're hangin' out at the pump<br>

<br>

Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn<br>

The dish ran away with the spoon<br>

Home again, home again Saturday morn<br>

He never gets up before noon<br>

<br>

Well, she used to render you legal and tender<br>

When you used to send her your promises boy<br>

A diller, a dollar, unbutton your collar<br>

And come out and holler out all of your noise <br>

<br>
