    "They all went to heaven in a little row boat" this is why I love Tom Waits!

    The percussion, wonderous guitar licks, and those amazing lyrics spat out in Waits’ trademark raspy growl, is a magical mixture.

      The percussion is Tom beating a dresser with a stick.

    Clapping hands is togetherness. Oneness. Unity.
    When only one person claps they unite their palms.
    When a Mammoth crowd cheers it is as One.
    Let us clap together in loud syncopated unisen for divine justice.
    Thank You Tom for always striving for authenticity. Much love & gratitude!

    This is inspiring for old bltchez like me. Age 30, after a career of archaic 2nd rate pop jazz tunes milking the too much smoking and bourbon vocal-albeit a few amazing pieces of music like heartattack and vine, talk to strangers--is rebirthed into a full fledged 1st rate artist amazing

    *Lyrics*
    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 Palladio'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 Palladio'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 hands

      @@timothyreal The lyrics would have made more sense that way. A paladin was a valorous knight; later referred to as a mercenary or bounty hunter.
      I did see the source where it said "Palladio" but yeah there was very little information on what exactly that was. Also; you missed one correction in your lyrics from Palladio to Paladin towards the top. Cheers 🍻

    (Clap Hands Lyrics Übersetzung
    Wahnsinnig, sie sind alle wahnsinnig
    Der Heizer ist blind, der Zugführer schwach
    Eine Cincinnati-Jacke, eine Unglücks-Dame
    lehnt sich aus dem Fenster mit einer Flasche Regen
    Klatscht in die Hände
    Ich sagte Gebrüll, Gebrüll, der Donner und das Gebrüll
    Dieser Hurensohn wird hier nie wieder zurückkommen
    Der Mond im Fenster, der Vogel auf der Stange
    Wir können immer einen Millionär finden, damit der die ganze Kohle schaufelt
    Klatscht in die Hände
    Ich sagte Dampf, Dampf, hundert schlechte Träume
    Er ging nach Harlem, in der Jeans eine Pistole
    Ein Fünfzig-Dollar-Schein in einem Paladin-Hut
    Und keiner weiß sicher, wo Mr. Knickerbocker hinmöchte
    Scheine, Scheine, ein Roosewelt-Dime
    Auf dem Weg nach Baltimore, die Zeit ist knapp
    Die Erlösungsarmee scheint im Loch zu enden
    Sie sind alle gen Himmel gefahren in einem kleinen groben Boot
    Klatscht in die Hände
