In Their Words: "It has long been one of my favorite Tom Waits songs. The entire song is a lie, until the last line. Sometimes in life, many of us — including myself — put up the same facade as the hooker in Minneapolis.” — Kinky Friedman

Instructions: Listen if you like Tom Waits' songs, but not Tom Waits' voice.
