@[thoughts3:15240] I love reading the interpretations on this song. Some are trying hard but stretching too far. I think this one is the most spot on. If you add Willie Mays being the statue and the word play there, I think you've got 95% of the picture Stuart paints here. Or, at least you can connect the dots from here. Thank you for your analysis! |

"The song is about having to put my dog down when he was only 6. He was the runt of the litter and he was most likely the result of bad dog breeding practices. Itβs a very long story, but to sum it up he had so many health problems that his quality of life had diminished to the point we had to put him down. The hardest thing was that through it all, he really kept trying to struggle through it all, even though his body was failing him. It broke my heart." |
