The music is also straightforward folk and piano music, far from the avantgarde arranged songs he'd write later.

* AntiLoveSong: "I Hope I Don't Fall In Love With You".
* CountingToThree: The first and second track are counted off.
* CradleOfLoneliness: Loneliness is a major theme.
* DidNotGetTheGirl: The main reason why the man in "Martha" phones Martha up again.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Those more familiar with Waits' later work may be a bit surprised to hear the singer with a clear, fine voice that isn't quite the GutturalGrowler/LargeHam he'd become later. The music is also straightforward folk and piano music, far from the avantgarde arranged songs he'd write later.
* FoolForLove: The man in "Martha" could be this, for actually trying to phone up a former lover from so many years ago whom he'd wished he had married back then.
* {{Instrumental}}: "Closing Time", the final track.
* IronicNurseryTune: "Midnight Lullaby" riffs on "Song of Sixpence",
* MundaneMadeAwesome: "Ice Cream Man", a catchy ditty about an ice cream man.
