Lyric discussion by SirThoreth 

Had no idea what the hell this song meant (a friend and I have pondered everything from just drug-induced ravings to the political mess that eventually led to the First World War).

While searching for the lyrics recently, though, I found this link: ceinfo.unh.edu/News/GHogWeed.htm - the song, while a bit embellished, is telling an almost literal history of the introduction of the giant hogweed to England, and its spread.

An error occured.
