Dancing With The Moonlit Knight

its very very clever this song. its basically an epitaph to british culture as large companies destroy its heritage. i will go thru it bit by bit but i havent taken a majority of what i say from anything but its what i take from it. - the first stanza i take to be the gambling of culture on the 'maybe' of development. the queen of maybe as its written, the 'unifaun'... well a faun is a creature much like the horns and tails thing in a trick of the tail altho' quite a few years prior to. old father thames drowing is blatantly in reference to londons famous river, the symobolic drowning bein a death of london as it was. the next stanze is more specific. 'its the time of ur life' points out how easily led people are by what they're told and 'wimpey dreams' refers to wimpey restaurants which at the time were takin over the food market with chain outlets. worth noting that they were an american company i think and therefore the song is almost anti american... followin stanza is a bit of a rant about people making their own messes based on what they're told to think.. -'green shield stamps' were the 70s equivalent to reward points at petrol stations or whatever - this points to comercialism. the verse about the fat old lady is a dig at those who willingly throw away their money, i presume to company director with their lying money grabbing ways. 'credit cards' is another modern day introduction of the times. -this song is closely linked to cinema show and aisle of plenty which continue the same theme to close the album.
