Cover art for Right Away, Great Captain! lyrics by Right Away, Great Captain!

when he states

"but god you mean more to me than any three hole punched fake scripture could come from me"

i believe he is refrencing the songs that he writes "three hole punched fake scripture", and that God means more to him than any of songs he has written.

i think this whole song is about how all the gigs and shows and thats are his ultimate goal in life still fall short unless he is are following where God leads him.

Right Away, Great Captain! is all a concept, it's not just the typical christian "God is the most important thing in the world." The songs on the first CD are about a sailor that leaves out to sea after his wife cheats on him with his brother, so no, this whole song is not about "all the gigs and shows", this CD was written quite a while ago anyways, so they hadn't even had toured as much as they have now

yeah, definitely not about god. He's putting god in place of the word damn or jeez or darn. like scobie said, its a pause.
