Help locate stolen Tom Waits song by 3rd Bass

I just read an interview with Tom Waits from '92 in which was mentioned that Waits 'took action' against rappers 3rd Bass for sampling the song "Down in the Hole" from "Bone Machine."

"They probably think I'm a real prick but I said listen, you didn't just take the boom-ching-boom, you took the whole song."

I'm interested in hearing it but can't find the title listed on any 3rd Bass recording. Does anyone have an idea how I can track down this one?

Thanks

Great to see you here, Dennis.

The 3rd Bass song is called something else, no? They sampled "Way Down in the Hole" but probably had enough sense to call their song by another name.

I believe the 3rd Bass song was "Flippin' Off The Wall Like Lucy Ball", from "The Cactus Album" (1989, Def Jam).
