Cover art for Back of a Truck lyrics by Regina Spektor

This is a song which explains the NY culture. From the beginning its all about NY, and its confirmed by the line: This is New York!

She had eaten her DOG--I Believe she's talking about a Hot Dog. The alien pods...well, everybody in NY thinks themselves better than the others, something out of this world. When she says the monumental arms part, i believe its talking about the Statue of Liberty The back of a truck selling everything....well, i guess you can buy anythingin the back of a truck in NY, even your back of a head, cause i guess that she's talking about stolen merchandise or something like that, then you can get it from the back of a truck in NY. Sorry, my english is not good, but i hope you get it.

haha sure? dog means hot dog??
