@FelixCloud I read somewhere that the elastic bands keeping his shoes on is a reference to his decline in caring for himself. He doesn't bother lacing and unlacing his shoes, he keeps them on with rubber bands. Also his shirt is a mess with pinhole burns, etc. He is in a state of drug addiction to the point that he doesn't care about his hygiene or appearance.

Some of the lyrics make me think of Syd Barrett. Waters has said that the 'elastic bands' line is an allusion to the great man.
