What?? Only 2 comments?! This is the greatest song on the album! No wait, in the whole world!!
Don't ya hate it when people comment like that? haha. But anyways, about the song, although benlonghair has a good interpretation, that could be correct, I think it's something different.
The song no doubt tells a story of a family that has the father being in charge, and the child is pushed into up-keeping family traditions. The child wants to break away from the fathers traditions and move on to new things.
Soo in a a broad sense, I think this song is about straying away from tradition, since traditions are usually fundamental and outdated, but something possibly oppressed (like the father) so it is difficult to break away. Just read the lyrics with this in mind it it mostly makes sense, but still kinda difficult so I could be wrong, eh?
