Pretty obvious, really, but I'll state it here in case anyone is unfamiliar: it's a fictional story based on a real event, the Happy Land fire, in which a night club in the Bronx was set on fire and 87 people died. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Happy_Land_fire |

I'm pretty sure this song is about the first time Joe went to New York City in the early 80s, which sets the backdrop for the rest of the album. |
