This and set the ray to jerry should have made the MCIS cut. Jerry replacing Beautiful, Last Song replacing Take Me Down (I like Take Me Down but it's the only James song)

Which I'm realizing I may have made up because I cannot find any images of what I'm describing I'm picturing like an older version of these things except 1) they're hooks and 2) they come up from under the mattress to hook/clip onto the top sheet and not just the bottom one Fuck my theory I guess. I was willing to work with it when it was about his mom dying but was written several months before she died, but this kills it |

Imagine writing a weird lyric and thinking it’s nestled safe within the confines of the song and then some asshole uses it as a thread title 27 years later.

his mother didn't die until like a year and a half later but she had cancer? idk it feels weird speculating about stuff like that.
obviously the stumbeline lyric is about abortion |

the sturrip line is the play on the double meaning. I wouldn't say it's specifically about one or the either.

consider the rest of the lyrics of the song
none of them are allusions they're all very real people and very real places and very real images |

I feel like you're all just fucking with me
metal fingers, dirty sheets obviously, this is about little Billy Jr. trying to sleep, hiding in bed from angry dad making violent noises around the house, probably come home wasted after some gig |

why he got metal fingers then
im going to go ahead and admit it right here right now that the skyscraper thing proposed by our very own brothhi4ly is 100% the correct interpretation, case closed |

metal fingers = wedding ring = sworn devotion to a particular individual
dirty sheets = infidelity Note: I do not subscribe to this interpretation, but it’s definitely the best one in the thread. |

The dad angle is objectively unsupported by the lyrics.

Also, Billy didn’t consciously imbed hidden meanings in lyrics during the writing process. He didn’t think about them at all beyond their poetic interest or effectiveness. I know because I was there.
