This song has a lot of Missouri references.
"The "beach there known for cancer" on Highway 70 is the infamous Times Beach, which was deserted due to dioxin poisoning."
"The "cough in the water" is the Great Flood of 1993."
"Farrar uses the metaphor of natural disasters to paint a picture of Midwestern life."
I must thank John Erlinger, who's tab of this song I stole these quotes from.
