i really like the lines "cause there's no kind of wealth, you're suiting yourself. you leave yourself behind."
i think it means that to everyone, wealth is different. you might think you have nothing, but somebody else might look at you and wish they were in your spot having the "nothing" that you take for granted. it is in the eye of the beholder. then, "you lEAVe yourself behind" means that you keep wanting more and more, and you get left behind when it comes to wanting to have things that when you get, don't mean that much to you.
Anyways, i think beck is a genius and he is one of the best songwriters i have ever heard. ramshackle is genius, too
