I'm fairly sure it's "Shared a pack of lights for lunch" (light cigarettes having less nicotine and all that, some people end up smoking more of them), as opposed to "pack of lies". In "Serving boy can chain nothing that ain't anchored to his throne", the "anchored" part sounds like Paul is saying something else, but I'm not sure what. Finally, I hear "And your ears just wanna ring" as opposed to "Your ears is gonna ring".

Thanks Mr. AwesomeSquared, you picked up on some things I had previously missed.
Neigh, said the horse to the jack---!!. On one hand "pack of lights" does make sense, but we're talking about Westerberg, who presumably, is relating what I believe is the bitter experience of mistakes and disappointment. Hence the Paul is sharing a measley cigarette for breakfast-- he eat nothing, and to top it off for lunch he is lied to by a music manager? probably someone making promises that they certainly can't keep? But at 4:12 Paul apologizes to their fans who the next day following the show had gathered outside their hotel and the Mats threw old...

Bad idea boys, but they do apologize.... at least that is the way I understand it.
A few (possible) corrections:
