'Eskimo Pies coming to you' is one of the silliest, sub-Dada, quasi-Surrealist lyrics that should never have been uttered. It makes no logical, objective sense at all. Radio Birdman were a very important band, that's a fact, they gave Australia a glimpse into the Detroit style of rock that wasn't even known outside of the area in the olden days of the black + white dinosaur era. Deniz Tek was a native of the place and landed in Oz to spread the word (and study medicine). Unfortunately, the 'word' could be inane silliness like I-94, with references to Detroit and, for no logical reason, pies (from Alaska, no less). Maybe some people get a great vibe from the tune alone, after all, it is a great, straight ahead, no-frills rocker, that just happens to be laden by a laughable lyric. If somebody has some mystical insight into the 'true' meaning of the song, then I'll be instantly silenced, but until that fortuitous day comes, I'll remain steadfast in my view of its complete nonsense
