I always got that impression from the line, "And my shoes are not accustomed to this hard concrete." D. J. Cartwright (talk) 14:03, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] The song refers to an insane asylum

The person in the song is in an insane asylum; “Flowers on the wall” refers to a padded cell. “Smoking cigarettes and watching Caption Kangaroo, don’t tell me I have nothing to do” refers to the patient neglect in years past. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.193.64.106 (talk) 19:38, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
