Synopsis

Joe is a blues singer. The music of daily life and car accidents. He accidentally kills a woman with a knife, burns down a store, and drowns a hotel manager. "Life is . . ." Joe is a preacher and the mayor tries to shut him down. Nonsense verse against a rhythmic backdrop. Looking in the mirror and seeing greatness.

Spblat

This has always been one of my favorites. Lots of nice shocking stuff. "So I drowned him in the toilet." "She died of a heart attack while I was stabbing her."
