Professor Knowitall has gotten what appears to me a closer touch on the song.
I honestly have no idea what its about, but my ex said its a reference to a book "East of Eden." Which is about a man who has twins (Two for the Price of one.) and his wife leaves him and he get all depressed.
I'm not entirely sure if thats true, seeing as I've never read the book, but from what she said, it makes sense.
The biblical reference I assume is the man referencing to God that he never helped his son, and the same with the father/son quotes.
The Master and slave is him with his depression. He's a Master of it, meaning he can deal with it when he wants, but he's also a slave to it. Same with the doubles at the bar.
The references to American iconography and being poor, is the man lives on a farm, and I assume it is set in the past.
This is just what I've heard, not entirely sure if its true.
