    On the surface, this is a religious song about keeping the devil at bay—though, knowing Waits, the devil could be any number of things. The music is excellent, its staccato saxophones and jazz-lounge bass mirroring the song’s sense of moral anxiety. The guitar solo is melodically unhinged; genius lies in its spastic gestures. Different versions of ...

    Recounting the devastating murder of Georgia Lee Moses and the questions it raised, this is one of Waits’ most deeply melancholic songs. For those who keep up with the news, “How can this happen?” is almost a daily question; this is that sentiment in song form. Fortunately, Waits’ sympathetic piano playing and singing guides us through.

    “Hoist That Rag” contains characters from Herbert Asbury’s book The Gangs of New York, possible references to anti-war television (M*A*S*H) and literature (Alberto Vea’s Gods Go Begging), and pseudo-patriotic imagery (“hoist that rag”). Some say Real Goneis Waits’ most political album, and it’s hard to argue against that, with the record’s proximit...

    Here is Tom Waits’ most interesting spoken-word track, a musty monologue by an inquisitive neighbor. The song’s spooky invasiveness is self-evident. Here’s what Waits had to say about it: “We’ve all become overly curious about our neighbors, and we all do believe, in the end, that we have a right to know what all of us are doing.” That’s a bad road...

    If Captain Beefheart had written and recorded a song while smoking crack, it would sound like this. It’s a bit ambiguous just who “Luce” is (and Waits has given multiple, conflicting explanations), but this remains a mournful tale of militaristic despair.

    This is a relentlessly bleak song, and it’s also probably as close as Waits gets to falsetto. Between “I want to know am I the sky or a bird” and “We’re chained to the world and we all gotta pull,” it seems like he was going through a tough time when he wrote it. Bone Machinewon a Grammy for Best Alternative Music Album, and with good reason.

    A sentimental ballad about Waits’ wife, Kathleen Brennan, “Johnsburg, Illinois” is one of his shortest songs. It works well as a 90-second track, though, because there’s really not much left to be said after starting a song with “She’s my only true love/She’s all that I think of/Look here in my wallet/That’s her.” The best things come in small pack...

    Closing Timewas produced, engineered, and arranged by Jerry Yester (The Lovin’ Spoonful), which is probably a big part of why tracks like “Ol’ ‘55” have such a breezy, straightforward folk-rock feel. When read alone, its lyrics seem like a mutant song pieced together from Bruce Springsteen’s cutting-room floor. Most interesting and affecting are th...

    This endearing song was written for Act III of a production of Woyzeck, the incomplete 19th-century play about a soldier who murders his wife for leaving him. The “green” in the title seems to represent harmony with the natural world, but green also has a potential dark side: the color of money.

    Just try to find a more lighthearted-sounding song about death. Despite sobering lyrics like “The piano is firewood/Times Square is a dream/I find we’ll lay down together/In the cold cold ground,” this song makes makes you want to dance, whether alone or with a loved one. Life is too short not to. https://youtu.be/KBeKV722q70

    A ranking of the best songs by the American singer-songwriter, who blends blues, jazz, rock, and experimental music. From his crushing ballads to his caustic rock pieces and eccentric spoken-word tracks, Waits reflects the antinomies of the contemporary experience.
