Okay, firstly amazing song. I've always heard it as someone not being able to express or convey their feelings or intentions too well, and being humbled by someone who can. Christ perhaps, as Shield suggested? |

| Elliott Smith – Son of Sam Lyrics

I like this one a lot and I see that so many other do too. My take on the lines:
"Son of Sam, son of a doctor's touch, a nurse's love
Acting under orders from above" comes from the John Irving book The Cider House Rules. I mean the character is named by a nurse in an orphanage where he stays on with a Dr., and couldn't he be seen as being a child of the state (Son of Sam)? I haven't read all the book and the connection is a bit far out but it's what I thought of when hearing the songs a few times. |
