I think Hyperstation is about doing too much drugs. It has this feeling of being totally out of it, like he's all caught up in his mind, and things in the real world are moving way too fast for him to comprehend. His life is completely out of control while he enjoys his daydreams. "I'm a walking lizard, last night's dream was a talking baby wizard" is the druggiest part to me.
It is my favorite drug song, and one of my favorite Sonic Youth songs. The mood is unlike anything I've ever heard, except maybe in my head. It is at the same time familiar and alien.
