As long as this thread contains a discussion of America's lyrics, I thought I'd ask about some that have had me scratching my head ever since one particular song of theirs was released:

In the song "Tin Man", what do they mean by
"Cause never was the reason for the evening
Or the tropic of Sir Galahad"?

Also, I've always assumed that the following lines were just nonsensical babble, but do they mean something?
"When I say I'm spinning round, round, round, round
Smoke glass stained bright colors
Image going down, down, down, down
Soapsud green like bubbles"


To BigDaddy: Oh! The quip that had me chuckling was LR Mole's reference to " the line 'Alligator lizards in the air', which was so fascinating it needed repeating"!! *G*

Then there's BillD's depiction of other people's reaction to...
art: "you eat WHAT?"
cooking: "you painted your bathroom WHAT color?"
choice of automobiles: "you really LIKE that abstract non-sense?" and
décor: "a BUICK?" *BG* !
