Lyric discussion by chestbuster 

No idea what the numbers mean (I've been googling like crazy) but the song seems to be (again) about industry, production, dehumanization

Ahhh..

  • Enter the number 6026961, in an old- (so that "2" gets rotational symetric) calculator.
  • Turn calculator upside down.
  • Now read: 1969209 4.Now read 1969209; and understand the new the number as the date: 1969-20-9 = 20 September Year 1969.
  • => Correlate to the date that John Lennon = Working class hero writer, left the Beatles.
  • Smile in relief: :-)

    Thanks for the reply, this is the first concrete interpretation I've read. That's amazing but so obscure. Although, the last line does say "...a working class hero is something to bleed" so it sort of falls into place.

    First of all you can take away the number of the beast. You are left with 0291. Since it's about industry, it's more likely that they refer to 1920 instead of 0291. 1920 is the year band-aid was invented. Reference to the albumtitle?
