Pinback – Clemenceau Lyrics 14 years ago
I like the connection your making here. But why limit it two one meaning. That is the beauty of poetry in any form. There are a lot of bad answers, but there can also be multiple great answers.

And I find it perfectly possible that Pinback was doing just that. Because they are truly brilliant.
