Mule Variations

This album was Tom Waits' 1999 release, and his thirteenth. The songs range from Big in Japan, a smooth but tough rock song, to Come On Up To the House, a powerful telling of a world's troubles. Waits did good again, striking a strange chord with Chocolate Jesus, and tugging your thought strings with Black Market Baby.

An excerpt from Mule Variations'-
Get Behind the Mule

Punctuated birds on the power line
In a Studebaker with the Birdie Joe Joaks
I'm diggin' all the way to China
With a silver spoon
While the hangman fumbles with the noose, boy
The hangman fumbles with the noose
Got to get behind the Mule
In the morning and plow

Variablast

1. The act of verbally "blasting" someone with an onslaught of nonsensical "variations" of straw man arguments and circular logic until your opponent eventually gives up and concludes that you are completely insane.

Don't Variablast me, I didn't call you a sexual predator, I called you a child predator. "Molestation" and "predatory behavior" are not mutually exclusive.
