I'm pretty sure the lyrics are "truth be told, my problem's old" not "my problem's solved." |

First off, I don't believe for a second that the misspelling of cemetery was unintentional. It's consistent with how it's pronounced in the song. The same thing with the hard g in plagiarize - I think it's deliberate, simply because it sounds better, and Moz has never shied away from affectation. I think the song is more about a happy friendship between a straight guy and a not-so straight one who share a love of literature. The sunny day is dreaded because it makes them feel obligated to go outside, when they'd probably rather be in a musty library writing and poring over books. Anyway, that's how I always took the song.
I don't think Moz is expressing a preference for Wilde over Keats or Yeats, at least as far as their poetry. I think it's a clear expression that Moz too is a weird lover. Not to say that it necessarily means gay but that he is not conventional. |
