I read in an interview that a lot of Widow City's lyrics were taken directly from images and articles they had seen in 70's magazine. Which is why a lot of the album doesn't make sense since it's sort of a collage of sorts.
I think this song really incoporates a lot of that. Nautical doormats, champion marigolds, could all be 70's imagery
