Waits, Tom - Underground Lyrics
Rattle big black bones in the Danger zone
There's a rumblin' groan down below
There's a big dark town, it's a place I've found
There's a world going on underground
While the rest of the world is asleep
Below the mine shaft roads, it will all unfold
There's a world going on underground
All the roots hang down, swing from town to town
They are marching around down under your boots
All the trucks unload beyond the gopher holes
There's a world going on underground

Waits, Tom Underground Comments
I love music, and history, so much. The best part is that my oldest son has taken a likeness to the same, and just schooled me with the music of Tom Waits! WOW, Hello Tom! Thank you for your entrepreneurial edge and for opening the gates to our beloved heavy metal. Truly a treat, and I am wiser today with the gift of inherited love of music inspiring our future. I cannot believe I never heard of this till now. Salute!
Wowowowow. I expected his voice to change while singing but this is extraordinary. Makes it work. Never expected jazz to be so punk-ish. Don't come at me for not knowing them alright? I'm more of a folk rock and grunge kinda guy.
someone help. who in hip hop sampled this????
YOU WILL BE UP TO YOUR BLOOMERS AND BROKEN OUTMODE JUNK!!!!
All these years and I barely learned that this song wasn't some strange original song in Robots
#Robots
After hearing this referenced a dozen times in MST3K episodes, I finally decided to check it out.
All I can really say is.. it's surreal
Little Drop of Poison was used in Shrek 2. The following year, this song was used in Robots. Coincidence??
https://youtu.be/CEoUQUTthag the last night of Generation X
This is a really good villian song from Disney Fox Robots
This is a really
If smoke could talk, it would sound like this.
I have a question: what genre is exactly this song? Blues but what kind of blues?
The music doesn't match his singing at all.
Machine?
I used to imagine dwarves marching to beat in this song when i was a kid. Love it!
The voice of an angry construction worker with laryngitis with his throat caught on fire
Gah I love it
Thing is there is a world going on underground but we just dont know it yet
I heard this when we were playing halo reach and I had to listen
Много ми ХАРЕСВА
What it sounds like when boys hit puperty lol
Pièce maitresse dans l'œuvre de Waits, "Swordfishtrombones" es une leçon absolue.
"We all lift together" before warframe
Candice did you get near the wild parsnips again?
You wanna run that by me agean
Hermosa cancion
The hollow Earthers theme song.
there needs to be a metal cover of this song pronto
I wish someone would animate king ghidorah singing this
Madame Gasket’s theme song
This song is eery as hell, like really terifying to me tbh
The chop shop
There’s a tic tac
Love ittt
UPGRADES PEOPLE
If little nightmares ever got a movie this song would work well for the trailer
Boys during workshop
This is a masterpiece. First watched robots when I was 7 and am revisiting now that im 14 looking forward to coming back when im 21
2 year old me headbanging to this son when the chop shop song came on when I was watching robots
im in an airplane now
Give this guy and inhaler!
"I'm Rodney bigbottom. No- I mean Rodney Copperbottom! Copperbottom..
"You don't wanna end up like your father do you?"
I tried singing along to this and it was like I’d been smoking unfiltered carpets for thirty years.
Sabaton's singer: Finally, a worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary!
Very good song
upgrades people, upgrades
What are you afraid of?!
Grow some bolts!
This makes me think of frost punk, they are billions, bioshock, and metro.
sounds like he's singing about the friend zone
Came for Robots nostalgia. Stayed for Tom Waits.
Yknow this feels like a miners work song
Got here from meet the stalker
#robots #chopshop
The official song of the scrapyard.
Ah, the memories
Was this the Fortuna before they fought back?
69k veiws.
Nice
The song is now a year old :D
SO LONG SON GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR DASTARDLY PLANS
reminds me of "A Nightmare Before Christmas"
I’d love to hear factory noises while you hear loud clanging which are bashing to the beat of the song
There's is a person who is perfect for the job (; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DY-gUrQ1plE&
Is it wierd that this song makes me want to work. 🤨
"ok everyone, break time!" music stops "break times over, get back to work!" everyone:awwww.
What a truly unique musical vocalist. Sounds like a combination between a pirate and crazed burglar.
How do I sing like that?
Are you old enough to chain smoke and binge drink for a few years non-stop?
Swallow about a litre of gravel
Such a great song. A shame people only remember it for that robot movie today.
Idk this song reminds me of... The ENTIRE Game of "Little Nightmares."
Would prolly be because of the beat sounds similar to the Guests banging their fists on the table, And walking on stuff.
oh damn, you're totally right.
I could imagine this playing in the basement levels where the janitor lives. Or the factory-esque areas found in the DLC.
@Blueburrito123 Yes Definitely
This mans sounds like he need to stop smoking cigarettes
Ladies and gentlemen, may I present to you...
The Assembly Line Anthem.
Exactly
True Capitalist is more like it
Bigwhale
We did want a *boy,*
r i g h t ?
"Prepares to shove a hammer up a baby *girl* robot"
Why does the song sound like it would be in the soundtrack for Donkey Kong Country Returns: Cliff Stage
Madame Gasket: "what are you afraid of, Grow some bolts"
Still my favorite quote from Robots.
Mine is from robin williams - Kakaaa! Kakaaaaaaaaaa!!! Rrrrrrrrricloaaaaaa!
no more bigweld,NO MORE OUTMODES!!
Keep Talkin'
The big puschy Robot: Break time !!!
Me pissing fast as i can in my pants: ahhh
Her: BREAK TIME'S OVER !!!
Me:plays this song*
the monster under my bed: this is my jam!
I get to do this song in band 0.0
Finally I found it. After so many years of searching
Heard this song and immediately watched robots again. I’m 20. I have no shame.
My brother is also twenty and has no shame.
He sounds like the goblin king from the Hobbit
I like that they have the clanging it I thought that was in the movie
Theory: this song is talking about earth and it’s hollow center
Reality : its about miners
I remember the scene in robots terrified me...
That was my favorit scene in the entire movie. Because of the music.
Fuck UMG
IFunny anyone
Ifunny?
Lemme guess was it the boys locker template
The Tethered theme from Us. *alternate version*
Love the song
:him: BANGS ON TRASH BIN 24 7
The best way i can think of how this feels to listen to is "anti-swing".
@Jaxson You mean Capitalism
@kevin willems Those are fundamentally opposite
stockart whiteman
_YES! THAT!_
It’s like it gets all the suave classiness of the genre, and sets it on fire. It’s the musical version of smoke inhalation.
@Smart Alec no fucking shit
S degrado: il mio cliente mi sta facendo una persona da me lo scorso mese e mi sono svegliata per un paio d'ore di settimana e ho la sensazione di fare una persona con la sua ragazza e non so che cosa si possa dire... non ho più tempo di fare il lavoro... 5 ore di settimana... ho la sensazione di fare 4 ore per la preparazione 55 giorni per un allenamento di allenamento... e ho una sensazione che mi abbia davvero fatto un po... mi sono calmata... mi sono calmata... mi ha fatto una cosa... e ho una domanda: io ho una vita normale ma io ho una vita da anni di vita... mi ha sempre fatto una vita... ma... e non ho più possibilità che non mi fossi innamorata... e non ho più tempo... mi sono 5 ore e non mi ha fatto un altro bacio e ho un altro... e non

Underground by Tom Waits
Lyrics
Rattle big black bones in the danger zone
There's a rumblin' groan down below
There's a big dark town, it's a place I've found
There's a world going on underground
They're alive, they're awake
While the rest of the world is asleep
Below the mine shaft roads, it will all unfold
There's a world going on underground
All the roots hang down, swing from town to town
They are marching around down under your boots
All the trucks unload beyond the gopher holes
There's a world going on underground
The theme song of Skaven
“Bye son! Good luck with your dastardly plans!”
Bye pop
my dad be like : COME ON SON LETS GO PLAY IN THE TOLIET!
You can shine no mater what your made of
"We wanted a boy right honey?"
Madame Gasket's unofficial theme song.
Any heavier, and this would be a head banging metal song
Sturmtruppen666 already is
It already is
This song probably got me into metal when I watched Robots.
man sounds like a human cigarette and i love it lmao
His throat is as rough as the tobacco so yea
I just rewatched robots for the first time since I was like 13 and I heard this song and thought "that's definitely Tom Waits"
Shame they never released the robots version of the song which you can hear how they changed it to the orginal
man i wish there's the film version with the intense instrumental (including that one note from the Baldi's Basics' school theme)
