If you ever want fireworks just mention to a Tom Waits fan he's not actually a one armed dwarf throwing dice along a wharf, but a millionaire songwriter in California probably sitting next to a pool writing his little songs about people with 2 heads and a broken liver.

Is he trying to be Orson Welles?

I've been to the Reeperbahn.

I could've written a more interesting song about it.

In the '80s it was Hansaplatz > Reeperbahn.

Track 13 - Bird's Eye Fish Fingers.

by Nightjar Tue Oct 20, 2020 9:11 pm

That last track is a bit like one of the songs from One From the Heart.

Crystal Gayle made those songs so much better too.

Do you think that this is what happens after they turn the cameras off of the Bird's Eye adverts?

For years people have made cheap suggestions about CB being a Paedo, but perhaps all he wanted to do was drink a sack of grog and gather all the children around with a passive-aggressive hug and blare into their faces drunken appeals beyond the remit of their tiny, fragile, little minds?
