I can't comprehend the resiliency of character it must require to retain a sense of "self" when celebrity is poured on you like it has been on John.
I heard him remark of the topic in an interview "I surround myself with people much smarter and better than myself" and I knew it to be total crap. John is a nice boy, ladies man, starving artist and millionaire all packed into a 6 foot, blues dripping hunk of a housecat.
This song is a coy blues-rock anthem; a commentary on celebrity and the struggle to define ones self... at least that's what John wants you to think. "You've got my number but I always knew the score..." means I'm in control, but enjoy it, you'll like the ride!
