Ok, this a wonderfully decadent song. It smells of smegma and damp bedsheets. Basically: "The Lido (wherever the heck that is, I'll let you jet-setters argue it out among yourselves–I don't give a rip) may have sausage and beer, and, yeah, it's a pretty cool hang out (some of our regulars have been there), but we got somethin' special here that they don't have, so they've been spending their free time here lately. Even the mayor and all his cronies are here because here nobody will give them up. We're all brothers in crime here, baby. This is where all the sailors go, they wear themselves out on shore leave here because they know this is where they get their money's worth! Welcome to scumbag paradise! And all it takes is two raps with your cane (a coital/phallic metaphor, obviously) to gain egress! It feels nice! 'Deed it do! That's what we're all about, Tex! We got what every swingin' dick wants: yo' skinny girl! She's the decadent obsession of the western world. Take Ruthie here: she'll take you up to the room with the red door and unlock the door to all your slimy dreams! All the sweetness you can imagine for just $20! One andy jackson is all it takes, here at the Western World! Every night you try to deny who you really are; what a waste! You know you want to be the animal, the madman, the beast! You gotta let the beast loose sooner or later, so why not sooner? It all cums out, either inside one of our sweet ruthies or inside your hand! So why not make it worthwhile instead of wanking in the dark all alone?" That's my take. Love this song; makes me want to take a shower! SD
@steelydeacon I agree with your take completely. But I would go a step further. The 'sweetness' he is so longing for, that is found in his 'skinny girl' seems to imply a specific fetish that must remain coded in this delicious ambiguity. Also, I believe the proper lyric is "you're longing to weep". But it all comes out...etc. Perhaps another dimension to our protagonist.
