Top Expert Lyrics

Cover art for Top Expert lyrics by Cat Power

I see it as a person who is weak or confused about life goes to seek help from the church or a priest of some sort who specializes in the "supernatural" or divine.( as in christian beliefs). When this confused person goes, they see "crucifixes and expectancy": the way of a moral and just life and what is expected of us as God fearing humans. This makes him/her feel safe,"And I feel So safe" but at the same time realize that he/she is not worthy of repentance or forgiveness. "I feel like a Beat cast-off I feel so Ashamed"

Now feeling left out and cast off this person asks the priest or "Top Expert on the supernatural" how to go about finding ones self in the midst of all life's chaos and sin. "Tell us oh how do we Catch a ghost in the Dark"

This only half of the story.. Any Comments or points of view?
