I read in a Creem [I think] issue from 1979 that Byrne said this song was about his relationship between himself and his father. It sounded strange when I read that [as Byrne is strange in himself], but because he wouldn't/refused to elaborate on the subject, it just left it open to a far wider interpretation. As it comes from a fantastic/brilliant album I really don't mind at all what/who it's about.
