Cover art for kingfish pies lyrics by Midlake

Tim Smith mentioned in an interview that while they were working on "Van Occupanther" he was working in a factory putting batteries in remote controls. He said it was great because he could just tune out and listen to music for 8 hours a day, and then go record with his band at night.

But I kind of wonder if this song is a reflection of his experiences in a factory (I'm sure he'd worked there while they were recording "Bamnan" as well).
