i used to think this was autobiographical too
but i had a realisation
now - especially if you listen to the whole album - most of it is sorta reporting from the streets not really autobiog
and i now think this song is another of lou's critiques of a subculture/stereotype
its about hippies - i dont think lou really likes hippies
hes ny east coast
and hippies tend to be more west coast california
(ive never been to usa in my life - but you know what im mean;)
hes taking the piss outa hippie- types in the song
its quite a well crafted funny song if looked at like this
he's really ripping it going
ooh look at me - im so free la de da de da da!!!!!
