Im glad you asked about the 3 armed man! This is one of my favorite verses in all of music. To appreciate this line even more you should do what you can to hear the version of off the Nico album which is almost exactly the same except for the title- St Andrews Hall, instead of Fall.
And more importantly, he goes from saying shoes to shoe in the last verse....SO:
You have an ex lover walking hand in hand in hand with a 3 armed man....she must have 3 arms too.
But you should have been in my shoe yesterday....He has only one foot.
He is recognizing that his ex love has found a better fit for herself by moving on....and is coming to grips with it and accepting it...
Such great lyrics on all of the Blind Melon albums...we lost alot when Shannon died.
