I always thought this song was about Bowie, after a night out, he comes back to his hotel after not being able to get with anyone, and is sexually frustrated. There was this one girl at whatever party he went to, and she was obnoxious, but easy, but he still "could do better than that." As it turns out, his "weekends at an all time low," and he couldn't find anyone else, so now he sees this same girl with someone else, aparently the person he's staying with at the hotel, and he knows "she'l lay him right down." He's mad that he didn't get with her when he had the chance. |

There is a clear religious undertone going on in this song. I think Terressa is the name of the god that this community all loves so much, as it is reitterated over again. At first you get the idea that because this disaster is destroying these people, it is a message of religious faith being worthless, because your God won't stop such a terrible thing. But, if they never worshipped Teressa, they would not have built the steeple, and without the steeple, all would have parished in the flood instead of half. In the end though, it is the same message from "They took a vote." The natural cycle of life, that some things have to die so that others can live on. Humanity being compared to the life of a fire. A fire literally burns itself alive until it has used up all its fuel, and then ceases to exist, but if it does not burn it will never exist in the first place. "All fires have to burn alive to live." |
