Sane, sane, they're all insane,
fireman's blind, the conductor is lame
A Cincinnati jacket and a sad-luck dame
Hanging out the window with a bottle full of rain
Clap hands, clap hands, clap hands, clap hands
Said roar, roar, the thunder and the roar
Son of a bitch is never coming back here no more
The moon in the window and a bird on the pole
We can always find a millionaire to shovel all the coal
Clap hands, clap hands, clap hands, clap hands
Said steam, steam, a hundred bad dreams
Going up to Harlem with a pistol in his jeans
A fifty-dollar bill inside a palladin's hat
And nobody's sure where Mr. Knickerbocker's at
Roar, roar, the thunder and the roar
Son of a bitch is never coming back here no more
Moon in the window and a bird on the pole
Can always find a millionaire to shovel all the coal
Clap hands, clap hands, clap hands, clap hands
I said steam, steam, a hundred bad dreams
Going up to Harlem with a pistol in his jeans
A fifty-dollar bill inside a palladin's hat
And nobody's sure where Mr. Knickerbocker's at
Shine, shine, a Roosevelt dime
All the way to Baltimore and running out of time
Salvation Army seemed to wind up in the hole
They all went to heaven in a little row boat
Clap hands, clap hands, clap hands, clap hands
Clap hands, clap hands, clap hands, clap hands
Clap hands, clap hands, clap hands, clap handsCould there be a familiar ring everytime I sing about.
Cycle the tears everything in life no doubt I, I.
Reiterate till my jaw is offset,
But I'll say it again anyway,
What you give is what you get!
Look at you now, look at you now,
you're put in your place, put in your place oh,
all medicine, all medicine is smacked in the face,
smacked in the face again!
Look at you now, look at you now,
you're put in your place, put in your place oh,
all medicine, all medicine is smacked in the face,
smacked in the face again!
(Smacked in the face again.)
(Smacked in the face again.)
So when the door comes swinging back around and the taste
of familiar medicine is abound on your breath, breath,
please don't come crawling back to me,
'cause you'll know what I'll say,
brother let your knees bleed PLEASE!
Look at you now, look at you now,
you're put in your place, put in your place oh,
all medicine, all medicine is smacked in the face,
smacked in the face again!
Look at you now, look at you now,
you're put in your place, put in your place oh,
all medicine, all medicine is smacked in the face,
smacked in the face again!
(Smacked in your face again.)
(Smacked in your face again.)
(Smacked in your face again.)
