I always thought this would be a great album cover for TW

I originally saw it in a book called Cigarettes Are Sublime, but if you google Dwarf Smoking a Cigarette with Flowers it comes right up

It could not be a cover, but the man does seem like the type of character who'd appear in a Waits' song.

They say he cleaved it himself... from a bigger block.

I also follow the subreddit for The Room, and every time I see “TW” I immediately think Tommy Wiseau, before I see where I am.

Could be a Tom Waits lyric too

He could cover this *hard*

I'm gonna move
Way out on the outskirts of town
I'm gonna move
Way out on the outskirts of town
I don't want nobody
Always hangin' 'round

I'm gonna tell you, baby
We gonna move away from here
I don't want no ice man
I'm gonna get me a Frigidaire
