I find it ironic that the 1st posters name references the main under current of this song but he/she doesn't see it.. remember that most of Live's songs have religious undertones and therefor easier to understand if you look there first..

Everybody has a ghost
Everybody has a ghost who sings like you do
Yours is not like mine
But it's alright, keep it up

he's being "religiously politically correct" by saying ghost instead of the more negative term and that we all have them but it's ok.

Boy loses rib in New Orleans
He can't help eyein'...
Boy loses rib in New Orleans
He can't help eyein' up the whores
Under the bridge
Boy loses rib and lets a hellified cry into the dark
Where did I go wrong?
man (in the garden of Eden) was to be the head of the woman (power) but the boy lost this "power" (rib) to woman as he gave into her sexually, and lets a "hellified" cry into the dark wondering where he went wrong because he didn't realize he was being lead (tempted) by his "ghost".
Where did I go wrong?
I never needed this before
I need a woman to help me feel
boy is confused because he is now addicted to sex but not sure how he got that way not realizing the "ghost" inside him is now what controls him.
Everybody has the dream
Everybody has the dream, like a world tattoo
Yours is not like mine
It's alright, keep it up
everybody has a belief, believe in some sort of "God" but even if yours is different that's ok.
The scalpel dives into the skin
Good doctors never leave a scar
No proof again
I'll take the myth, you take the blood
It's all the same to the world dreamer
It's all the same in the end
problem is not physical "scientifically proven" even though docters would try to free those tormented by their "ghost".. he would rather believe it's a spiritual problem (myth) as opposed to physical (blood) but either way the result is still the same.. he has a "ghost".. we all do.
Boy loses rib in New Orleans
He trades some ether for a chance
Under the bridge
trades drugs for sex which shows how powerful his particular ghost (sexual addiction) is as ether is very high grade cocain and SHOULD be even more addictive.
Boy loses rib as he's summoned to the mud
Flat on his back
Cryin' where did I go wrong?
Again the boy gives into the woman on his back still crying in desparation/confusion as to how he got so addicted.. but who summoned him?..
"The scalpel dives into the skin Good doctors never leave a scar No proof again"
i think this line is an analogy to the woman teaching a lesson... they are the doctors, and they don't leave a (physical) scar.
