took me a while, but I'm finally responding to the tagging I received from the She-Creature. I'm not sure I've understood entirely, but it was something to the effect of-- which TomWaits song do I most identify myself with? I could go with any number of choices but I'll stick with a classic: Tango til they're sore. By the way, this is the song to play at my "life appreciation service," oh that's still funny, while you're eating the cake containing my ashes.
Make sure they play my theme song
I guess daisies will have to do
Just get me to New Orleans and paint shadows on the pews
Turn the spit on that pig and kick the drum and let me down
Put my clarinet beneath your bed 'til I get back in town
Let me fall out of the window with confetti in my hair
Deal out Jacks or Better on a blanket by the stairs
I'll tell you all my secrets, but I lie about my past
So send me off to bed for evermore
