I've never thought about the Blackwater theory before that's pretty interesting, mad props for the exstensive research, but they talked to Fallon in an interview (which I think I found on youtube) asking about the entire album, and it's supposed to be a very very very very very loose story, about the Blast Tyrant in his search for the Worm Drink "who has lately betrayed his nation." Anywho, from what Neil said, the Swollen Goat is actually the Blast Tyrant's ship, in which he uses to seek out Worm Drink, now when I say very loose, it allows a whole lot to the imagination, as to the whole backstory, it's more like a brief summary. As for the Blackwater theory, that, may be some underlying meaning "the governor been long gone anchor dropped on his front lawn" may be a reference to the Blackwater company turning on us for the right amount of money, but who knows.
