It's dreamy weather we're on
You waved your crooked wand
Along an icy pond with a frozen moon
A murder of silhouette crows I saw
And the tears on my face
And the skates on the pond
They spell Alice
I disappear in your name
But you must wait for me
Somewhere across the sea
There's a wreck of a ship
Your hair is like meadow grass on the tide
And the raindrops on my window
And the ice in my drink
Baby all I can think of is Alice
Arithmetic arithmetock
Turn the hands back on the clock
How does the ocean rock the boat?
How did the razor find my throat?
The only strings that hold me here
Are tangled up around the pier
And so a secret kiss
Brings madness with the bliss
And I will think of this
When I'm dead in my grave
Set me adrift and I'm lost over there
And I must be insane
To go skating on your name
And by tracing it twice
I fell through the ice
Of Alice
And so a secret kiss
Brings madness with the bliss
And I will think of this
When I'm dead in my grave
Set me adrift and I'm lost over there
And I must be insane
To go skating on your name
And by tracing it twice
I fell through the ice
Of Alice
There's only Alice

Tom Waits (nato Thomas Alan Waits il 7 dicembre 1949) è un cantautore, musicista e attore statunitense considerato uno dei più influenti artisti del panorama musicale contemporaneo. Conosciuto per la sua voce roca e inimitabile, le sue performance teatrali e le sue canzoni caratterizzate da atmosfere dark e surreali, Waits ha attraversato diverse fasi musicali, dal blues al jazz, passando per il rock sperimentale e l'avant-garde. La sua carriera musicale inizia negli anni '60 con la formazione di gruppi come The Tom Waits Band e poi come musicista solista. Nel corso degli anni '70 e '80 raggiunge un successo crescente grazie a album come "Closing Time" (1973), "Heartattack and Vine" (1981) e "Rain Dogs" (1985). Negli anni successivi, Waits si dedica anche alla recitazione, partecipando a film di registi come Wim Wenders e Francis Ford Coppola. Tra i suoi brani più rappresentativi ricordiamo "Tom Traubert's Blues", "I Hope That I Don't Fall in Love with You", "Hold On" e "Martha”. Waits è stato insignito di numerosi premi, tra cui il Grammy Award per la vita e l'opera.
