I reckon it's just about Steve's playful imagination. He probably wanted to be a parate when he was a kid, or something. We can read too much into lyric meanings sometimes. |

| Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks – The Hook Lyrics

With his child-like, playful, explorative and vivid imagination, Steve Malkmus describes an alter-world in where he's a pirate. I concur with Spaceman Spiff – this is the greatest ever written. It doesn't fail to put a smile on my face when I hear it.
A quick edit though, I believe it should be 'stubborn' cook, not 'starving'. |

| Bob Dylan – Subterranean Homesick Blues Lyrics
| 13 years ago

I'm with the poster who says he's craving the comforts of home, because his life in the big city has gotten all haywire, scoring drugs, hanging with misfits and the like.
I remember... When I moved to London aged 20 from the country-side. I remember being in a crack-den in Brixton with a big black fella pulling a gun on my friend and me and we had to beat him to a pulp to escape, thinking in a fucked-up-frenzy-blur... 'man I miss paisley pattern of Aunt Edna's carpet next door...'
But Dylan puts it better. |
