Jag låter Tom Waits hesa murbräcka till röst leda vägen genom december. En röst som vittnar om 30 hårda år. I decembermörkret lyssnar jag på en röst som kommer från djupet.
Jag vet inte om han sjunger om kärlek eller abstinens efter droger. Avgör själva..
Vackert är det i alla fall.
You can throw it out in the rain
You can whip it like a dog
You can chop it down like an old dead tree
You can always see it
When you're coming into town
Once you hang it on the wall
You can never take it down
But there's one thing you can't lose
And it's that feel
You can pawn your watch and chain
But not that feel
It always comes and finds you
It will always hear you cry
I cross my wooden leg
And I swear on my glass eye
It will never leave you high and dry
Never leave you loose
It's harder to get rid of than tattoos
Tack Tom.. Så vad säger ni?
