Pretty sure these are spot on. Google the 'Dog in the Manger Fable', really sheds a lot of light on the meaning of this song. Also neatly links in the "fifteen patons of bread" and the "where's my hay" part.
We need vices
We need vices
Where's all my hope and my marriage license?
(Where's my hay?)
Those days are dead (forgive me)
Those days are dead (forgive me)
Those days are dead (forgive me)
We need vices and fifteen patons of bread
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
And jumped
Our good Creator (oh no)
The dog in the manger
Where is my shrink and my mind's eraser?
(we sing a sad song)
That forest burned (do you see smoke?)
That forest burned (a halo)
That forest burned
We need ten years on rewind so we can return
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
And jumped
We need vices
We need vices
We've been needing to brandish our disguises
Those days are dead (forgive me)
Those days are dead (forgive me)
Those days are dead (forgive me)
We need vices and wheels to the funeral gate
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
And jumped
Interesting insight. I don't see the patons of bread link in the original story of the dog and the manger, but it sounds way more like that than "fifteen thousand degrees".
It also sounds to me like he says "we need choices, we need vices" the second time he sings it (after the guitar break)
