It says at the beginning what the song means! It was written about a waitress named Enid. She worked at a restaurant in Moncton, New Brunswick called "Spanky's". Now, it's a Mexi Cali Rosa's. The fact that he wrote the song and made it sound like a young love relationship is strange, because they only spoke with the waitress for a few hours before leaving the city.
@philwalker Actually, the song was about Steven's first relationship, but then he used the name Enid from his experience with meeting the waitress at Spanky's that impressed upon him because of her great attitude and also her name spelled "Dine" backward and she was a waitress. If you want to know more, listen to our interview with Enid next week on the podcast, Barenaked ABCs.
