I love this song. I think it's a perfect ending for Wowee Zowee. It's a weird change of pace after all those sprawling jams--very fitting with Pavement's style to do that.
It's about California, like a lot of their songs. A lot of the immigrants to California were only looking for a new home, a place to breed, a congregation. Now the dream has gone wrong--their homes are "locked forever."

That's my take on it, anyway.
