Also, I forgot to mention 2 years ago that this song emulates the sounds of a train as well. Just like the Arthur Honegger work in 1923. The guitars and drums in this songs emulate the chug of a train going along the tracks, slowing and speeding up. A different song by the Cure, "Jumping Someone Else's Train," also has drums and rhythm to mimic that of a train.
