Hi all. as ageneral (and first) comments, just guys think how the language barrier may mean for a non natural english spoken. We always assume we're not grasping it all so we let the imagination fly.
Particularly with great Mark's songs where things don't necessarily mean something clear.
In this case (get ready guys) I simply imagined the scare crow is a woman. Why? Why not!! I agree most of considerations on contrast with Xmas feelings and misery for the two people and how the nice Xmas feelings (and the bottle) make them scape the misery. So I thought that a love story within this context got stronger and made the situation deeper (in terms of communicating feelings) too.
I ams urprised no one has considered this possibility, and alsoa sk you if there's some line that simply discards it. You know we latin speakers have genre more clear so the ambiguity in english makes us guess.
I think the the story of the two poor homeless man and lady would be sooo nice in this context, yet sad and all in a very Dickensian way, right?
I guess that hints such as the beautiful hair, the dancing, the tear made me think they love each other. I didn't know, but I imagined the rest.
What you think?
regards
