Ok bitches. My interpretation of my favourite song.
The song starts off outlining the cynic / stoic nature of his life (possessions never meant anything to me). The pockets full of kleenex bit - cant grasp his hopes / dreams / desires and those two parts are presented in a real way that is kind of showing the harsh truth of his life while at the same time its not so bad, it's who he is.
The next part is really where things kick off from "Thats me on the beach". It outlines a bunch of people who are sad cases. The weird guy combing the sand with a metal detector who only seems to get shit for his efforts, The crazy guy who plays violin, the rebel on the back of the bus, the prisoner in the cell.
He is saying he sees himself in all of those dregs, all those crazy and damaged people. That side of humanity is in him too and you know what its also in you the listener (Thats me inside your head).
Sometimes I literally need this song. Fat Mike if you ever read this man. You and the other punkers saved me.
