Ah, well that's quite insightful actually--yes, it seems that this has to do with alchohol. But I think that's the main idea of this song; also I'm pretty sure the idea of burying the scraper is an ironic mistake. The scraper (which he could use to get to the source of the brain problem)was buried (so as he could not get to it,) leaving him helpless. However, the scraper will be revealed in the springtime, when he can finally get to the source of the problem. Huzzah!
