[Verse 1]
Life is whittled, life's a riddle
Man's a fiddle that life plays on
When the day breaks and the earth quakes
Life's a mistake all day long
[Pre-Chorus]
You tell me who gives a good goddamn
You'll never get out alive
Don't go dreaming
Don't go scheming
A man must test his mettle
In the crooked old world
[Chorus]
Starving in the belly, starving in the belly
Starving in the belly of a whale
Oh, you're starving in the belly, starving in the belly
Starving in the belly of a whale
[Verse 2]
Don't take my word, just look skyward
They that dance must pay the fiddler
Sky is darkening, dogs are barking
But the caravan moves on
Life is whittled, life's a riddle
Man's a fiddle that life plays on
When the day breaks and the earth quakes
Life's a mistake all day long
[Pre-Chorus]
You tell me who gives a good goddamn
You'll never get out alive
Don't go dreaming
Don't go scheming
A man must test his mettle
In the crooked old world
[Chorus]
Starving in the belly, starving in the belly
Starving in the belly of a whale
Oh, you're starving in the belly, starving in the belly
Starving in the belly of a whale
[Verse 2]
Don't take my word, just look skyward
They that dance must pay the fiddler
Sky is darkening, dogs are barking
But the caravan moves on
