As has been stated elsewhere,#Hi_Ho_Silver_Lining criticises hippy culture. Specifically the optimism expressed by feeling that "everything is groovy" in denial of the fact that your "tyres are flat". The feeling that the sun is always shining means that one never takes a realistic opinion about anything, or that one is"everywhere and nowhere" at the same time. The writer warns that reality, not just "getting fat", and flies in "your pea soup", but "lies" are going to get you someday, and advises that although you may have a roof today under which to watch TV, you had "better open up your beach umbrella" because you don't know how quickly things can change.
