Perhaps, Thesmellyone. Based on the context of the rest of the album I always imagine that this song, unlike the other murderer songs (the serial killer in 'Nebraska', murderers in 'Johnny 99' and 'Highway Patrolman'), is about a real monster. The other ones killed for petty reasons but this guy's left undescribed, which makes him sound like a total lunatic.
