When I listen to this song I have a really good laugh! It kind of sounds as if he's felling sorry for himself and is exaggerating his circumstances, or it could it actually be an unfortunate individual in real life? I'm thinking he is describing some messed up high ranking societal figure? Who knows? Love this song whatever it's about doesn't matter!
