brief mention of horrible stuff in Tom Waits lyrics 

Marriage did the opposite of mellowing Tom Waits out. His stuff before Kathleen was his producer is at harshest reminiscing about times and girls long gone, afterwards you get stuff where Jesus was off drinking when they found sweet Alice’s body in the dumpster and blamed a homeless person. All I can imagine is he said he wanted to do harder edged stuff over breakfast some morning, and she told him to follow his bliss.
