Cover art for Wicked Little Town lyrics by Hedwig and the Angry Inch

Did anyone not understand the lines about "Mrs. Lot" in the last verse? It's a reference to the biblical myth (see my comment on "The Origin of Love" from 05-04-2002 @ 12:56AM) of Sodom and Gommorah. Remember now? God spared Lot and his family, but told them not to turn around and look back. When his wife did, God turned her into a "pillar of salt" (Harsh, huh?). The moral of this tale I guess is, "Don't look back". This reference to Sodom is given a whole new meaning, though when you consider that the star/director, songwriter and certain characters of this film are all "Sodomites"!
