what's he building

• 7 nisan 2002 muse konseri'nden önce kalabalığa dağıtılan, yanıp sönen mavi lambalar ve yanıp sönen mavi sahne ışıklarıyla muse sahneye çıkmadan önce venue'yü toptan tribe sokmuş tom waits eseri. gayet kötü bir konserin hatırlanacak en güzel anlarını oluşturmuştur.
• tom waits şöyle der şarkıda:
  
  what's he building in there?
  what the hell is he building
  ın there?
  he has subscriptions to those
  magazines... he never
  waves when he goes by
  he's hiding something from
  the rest of us... he's all
  to himself... ı think ı know
  why... he took down the
  tire swing from the peppertree
  he has no children of his
  own you see... he has no dog
  and he has no friends and
  his lawn is dying... and
  what about all those packages
  he sends. what's he building in there?
  with that hook light
  on the stairs. what's he building
  ın there... ı'll tell you one thing
  he's not building a playhouse for
  the children what's he building
  ın there?
  
  now what's that sound from under the door?
  he's pounding nails into a
  hardwood floor... and ı
  swear to god ı heard someone
  moaning low... and ı keep
  seeing the blue light of a
  t.v. show...
  he has a router
  and a table saw... and you
  won't believe what mr. sticha saw
  there's poison underneath the sink
  of course... but there's also
  enough formaldehyde to choke
  a horse... what's he building
  ın there. what the hell is he
  building in there? ı heard he
  has an ex-wife in some place
  called mayors ıncome, tennessee
  and he used to have a
  consulting business in ındonesia...
  but what is he building in there?
  what the hell is building in there?
  
  he has no friends
  but he gets a lot of mail
  ı'll bet he spent a little
  time in jail...
  ı heard he was up on the
  roof last night
  signaling with a flashlight
  and what's that tune he's
  always whistling...
  what's he building in there?
  what's he building in there?
  
  we have a right to know...
