along the lines of what urukhigh said, I think there is something about the tention with religion in this. James is very clear about wanting the listeners to take their own meaning out of the words, but I do think the title of this one is pushing us in a specific direction.
Most of the songs on the album are titled by combining words that appear together in the song. This one isn't. The word smash title comes from two or more unknown words, but it forms the word "amen" which forces me to think there is some connection to religion in the song. My first thought is that the second part of the word looks almost like enemy.
