Yeah I partly agree with the OffAir. Ive listened to this song quite a few times and I think Andrew see's his popularity as a "whistle." He could use popularity now to work on his side when it comes to women in his life and now he has the ability to just get relations started easily with women, fuck and end them on his own command and without the worry of being so tied up with one girl and the problems that go along with dating and getting something "real" started with ladies. Thanks to the stardom and the rush of being on the road. "The flood erases the crime" all the business thats going on and fast paced concerns of getting the music portion taken care of first helps him hide the guilt he is feeling.
Yeah I found a whistle that works every time
that's when the trail escapes to nowhere
and the flood erases the crime
repeatedly raising the flag
all ignored, real emotion's such a drag
(Lotsa sex and it not meaning very much to him since hes ignoring real emotions. Such a drag(MGMTS sarcasm)
Hey I've got a pistol that's aimed at your heart and on dark nights when the moon is right
I could show you
the head attached with a scarf
aerophane sorceress, at home obeying the fates
when it's gone, has it gone all the way?
(Pistol aimed at your heart could just show his selfishness, sex, and when a great girl comes around and is gone the next day, that feeling he felt might just be lying around the corner (or the next city)
It hangs like a charm (it will always be there)
Idk seems pretty simple to me. Def dont think this song is about drugs.

I like this. It fits almost flawlessly.
