Whats he building? by American Musician Tom Waits is a very strange song. The listener/reader (& viewer-if you include the video) is made to feel uneasy. Tom Waits does this in many different ways.
We noticed:
- Repetition 'Whats he building in there, what the hell is he building in there?'
- Unusual rhyme sequences-Sometimes 4 stanzas ABCB, sometimes a couplet AA, sometimes free verse.
- Uneasy content-A neighbour spying on a strange man next door.
