This song reminds me of the film, "Slacker" - it's definitely a mid-late '80s sorta feeling of people just hanging out in a college town with very little going on. The protagonist is a guy who thinks he can do something ("if I had just a little time/I could speak 7 languages/I could walk on water") unrealistic but in the end doesn't bother to follow this pursuit ("I woke up with a word in my head/And as far as I know/It has no meaning at all")

My two cents worth!
