From what I remember this song has more to do with Braid than meets the eye. If I remember correctly, it is about them going on the Japanese tour and not making enough $ to cover their travel expense’s hence the “it’s pointless to play if you don’t get paid” line.
There was an interview with Bob and Chris around the release of Frames and Canvas that describes it in a lot more detail.
