Re: Mike Love calling out the line:
Over and over the crow cries uncover the cornfield
I wanted to just have some fun and purposely read into this line, in an attempt to see what it means. It -is- just for fun, but I also do believe that you can write something profound and not actually realize the depth of what it is you have written. This is why even an artist hasn't intended something, if you happen to see it, it's there.
Look at it like:
Over and over the crow cries, "Uncover the cornfield!"
A "covered" cornfield would be one filled with corn.
An "uncovered" cornfield would be one devoid of corn -- empty, dead stalks.
Two thoughts:
1.) A crow crying, "Uncover the cornfield" could be alternatively said as "It's time to feast!" and eat as much corn as possible. It's exclamation to hype you up. So in the broader sense it's basically saying "Let's celebrate!"
2.) Maybe he's referring to a 'crow, as in a Scarecrow, who longs for the fields to be empty, so he can finally get some relaxation and not have to worry about watching out for actual crows. In the broader sense this is dat existential angst.
