Tom Waits - November Lyrics
No shadow
No stars
No moon
No care
November
In a pile of dead leaves
And a moon
That's the color of bone
No prayers for November
To linger longer
Stick your spoon in the wall
We'll slaughter them all
November has tied me
Get word to April
To rescue me
November's cold chain
Made of wet boots and rain
And shiny black ravens
On chimney smoke lanes
November seems odd
You're my firing squad
November
With my hair slicked back
With carrion shellac
With the blood from a pheasant
And the bone from a hare
Tied to the branches
Of a roebuck stag
Left to wave in the timber
Like a buck shot flag
Go away you rainsnout
Go away, blow your brains out
November

Tom Waits November Comments
I once saw a marquee outside a motel:
NO LEAVES
NO SNOW
NO MONEY
NO TOURISTS
NOVEMBER
U mnie też November ...
Whos looking for sad songs in their birthday? Me.
Happy Birthday, 3 days late.
Great monochrome photos...nicely done!
This is one of Tom's best songs lyrically, but, sorry, man, November's the shit. (Except for 2016.)
November 2019
Who would have thought we'd made it that far.
Вся жизнь ебаный ноябрь
the saw sound is really great
white russians black & milds polyester. men beyond their prime on business trips in the hotel lobby....
The musical saw in it is perfect!
Not a saw. Theremin
This is the perfect Leftist's mourning song.
oh come on! where is the "November, 2018 anybody!?" comment?!
yes we're here
Go away, you rain snout
Go away, blow your brains out
Powerful stuff, man.
This is my least favourite Tom Waits song. My only sibling did blow her brains out; I wonder if she felt as miserable as the feeling of this song. I still like some things about it. Is that a saw?
****) MAD DOG SEAL OF I SANG THIS IN JAIL (****
This song fully encompasses the feeling those of us who hate the long, cold, dead winter brings. Ugh... when will spring come? Will you survive winter or will it survive you?
Reminds me of Over the Garden Wall <3
Türk yok mu Türk ? (Perfect)
As bayrakları as ✌️
one of the most sublimely beautiful songs I've ever loved.... Transcendent...
listen tumbms down...you are GOING TO DIE!
Who the FUCK says no to this? Unfeeling dead souls?
I was born in some time other, yet this song is my favorite month
My name is November. Not the most flattering song, from that point of view...lol...but I have an affinity for the song, nonetheless.
Stick your spoon in the wall. Oh boy!
The greatest musician in history !
/r/soccer brought me here because Arsenal :-P
What a meaningful video, deep soul sad winter time , nice catch , well match to the song. great piece, God bless you.
No shadow
No stars
No moon
No care
November
It only believes
In a pile of dead leaves
And a moon
That's the color of bone
No prayers for November
To linger longer
Stick your spoon in the wall
We'll slaughter them all
November has tied me
To an old dead tree
Get word to April
To rescue me
November's cold chain
Made of wet boots and rain
And shiny black ravens
On chimney smoke lanes
November seems odd
You're my firing squad
November
With my hair slicked back
With carrion shellac
With the blood from a pheasant
And the bone from a hare
Tied to the branches
Of a roebuck stag
Left to wave in the timber
Like a buck shot flag
Go away you rainsnout
Go away, blow your brains out
November
try printing the real lyrics dum dum
Amazing song. (but the video is frustrating since the imagery literally has nothing to do with anything)
"Se alguma coisa se te opõe e te fere, deixa crescer. É sinal que estás a ganhar raízes e a mudar. Abençoado ferimento que te faz parir de ti próprio." - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
high up in the top 5 most depressing art pieces of all times. offers no relief or way out at the end. educated ones would say thats the first step towards catharsis.
Man, that theremin caught me by surprise. Awesome song.
It's a musical saw

Beautiful Song!November is back! BRRR!
Charnière ou la lumière brille d’une rare probité. Les rêves racornissent sous les cendres. Tout s’apaise dans la grisaille. Des braises rognent les longues nuits. Tu me manques toujours en attendant avril. Pas d’ombre, pas d’étoiles… Sur le chemin, amas de feuilles mortes… je m’oublis.
Guess what time it is.
Yah it is rainy and stormy weather real november,
Windy Rainy Stormy, a glass full of rotting leaves and mudd. November has only been invented to stick my birthday in. Not right in the middle, but a bit to the side, towards it's darker, colder brother. December !! Go listen to the Waterboys for that, my sombre friend.
+reuireuiop0 Very righteous.
One of the best ever -yeah
send word to April - to RESCUE ME!!!
Awesome stuff. Our group's lead singer is largely influenced by this stuff. Check it out if you get a chance. Cheers!
Grande Tom
@notonpage7 its not the weather. The worst things happen in November. Loss of life lovers and sanity.
I wonder why.. There's like 2 other songs I know called 'November' and both are sad.. You may wanna listen to it. 'November' from Max Richter and, well, 'November' by Azure Ray
LAuren
who hurt you lorren

A gentleman is someone who can play the accordion, but doesn't.

I feel the same about bagpipes, jokawaii meatartjo.
Love this song.

και καλο χειμωνα ζεστο σαν ανοιξη !!
November is back !!!!
Невероятно мастерски.
"You tied your hair around my tree, you never tied yourself that tightly to me, and all your summers come to rain, you dream you're swimming but you're drowning again"
Nofapvember
Appreciated! I had always assumed it was a Theremin
Thanks God for November. I LOVE this song, always on the 1st of this wonderful month...
Today I'm smoker again... Sad and grey November...
November will be here again in three days!!
Beautiful <3
starts with a musical saw!
I love November, and can't wait. I hate summer.
néha azt gondoljuk, hogy tavasz van....
most suicides happen in November.
Sorry to bother you one year after your comment but it´s so good! I lmao. Thanks
Go away you rainsnout Go away, blow your brains out November
Tied me to an old dead tree and some other things.
or other if u borrowed it. ok?
What did November every do to you?
it is the month my fahter died. cold and with tom
Another mystery solved. And on to the next!
cool stuff
Its a saw,, i checked the cd insert.
That might be a saw, or it might be a theremin.
I hate November.
November; truly the monday of months.
November is today,
Tim & Tom definitely need to work together on something. I really don't see how it hasn't happened yet. I mean, Tom Waits is on the soundtrack to Shrek and the movie Robots, so it's not about tim burton being too much of a pop-artist. I would love to see Tom Waits animated in the style of the nightmare before christmas, but darker. tim burton could really do him justice.
Tom and Chet are the only ones who know how it feels
Спасибо. Одна из лучших, как мне кажется, песен его. Видеоряд - замечательно.
תודה..
His voice is so addictive.
Tom Waits rocks my world!! Is´nt there someone playing on a saw in the background? How can this bring tears to my eyes? Damn u Tom u the best!!!
@GeneLattanzi I think Tim Burton and Tom Waits would work well together in any scenario!
@FnBast thank you :) they sound so similar sometimes...
@GeneLattanzi I thought i was the only one.
So great!!
My song, my month
I love tome Waits and this song. Does anyone know if there is a theremin playing in it?
That was the first thing I thought of when I heard the intro
so much passion
mam nadzieje, mam wiarę- kilka osób pokochało taka muzykę trochę inna niż celebrytki. pozdrawiam
@darinfl1
Dammit, if only this guy had been around to tell me what to like ten years ago, I might never have started listening to Tom Waits.
@MSYNGWIE12 ME EYES
@darinfl1 Isn't thier fault they like it? Let them like what they want, and you like what you want.
Tom's got me crying, but it's a good cry.
...dark...but Tom is good....
You militant Waits fans who spout such nonsense as "best voice ever" and "sounds like the voice of God" and other assorted rubbish might really learn something if you took a few minutes to give this an honest read:
mileswmathis[dot com]/waits.html
@joeygarage77 Wow, Joey. Well said. I truly admire your ability to carefully explain and defend your position.
@darinfl1 idiot
And Russia.
I don't know why but this song reminds me of Neil Gaiman books.
@peeeesh Yeah, you're right. Calling deliberate growling and circus-like groans what they are makes me an idiot.
