I think the way this song is laid out is possibly a tribute to The Velvet Underground and their song The Gift. The Gift has got a sort of bluesy rock song but instead of lyrics, John Cale just recites a short story. Lee is kindof reciting this rather than singing it. They also mention White Light and The Gift is on the V.U album White Light/White Heat. Awesome song on an awesome LP by an awesome band.
