Eid Ma Clack Shaw Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Candlemas

First, I love this song. Second, this song is something of a joke...Bill's dark humor coming through. The character in the song dreams a way to resolve his grief but wakes to find it was utter nonsense. That's because there is no solution to grief. It's the rider you cannot put aground. You're stuck with it and you're dreaming if you think you can escape it. Ha ha! Good one Bill.

I love your breakdown on this song's lyrics. I think you are right on! Candlemas, you are quite the smarty :)

I agree... nicely said.

@Candlemas That is very astute, and well-put.
