I think it has something to do with a solider who was crippled in Vietnam: Then a shyboy from Missouri Boots blown off in a '60s war Riding aluminium crutches Now he knows the welfare kindness n' Agent Orange color blindness Joe viewed inner city America as an urban Vietnam. However this sond does seem to jump around a bit I mean the bit about Gorillas WTF. Anyway thats me hopefully deciphering some of this song.

the shy boy from missouri etc are great lyrics you could now relate it to british soldiers returning from iraq/`stan with terrible wounds.

@Cpt-Sensible Joe is comparing the city to a zoo. Joe was very good at story telling in a creative way.
