Stronger Through The Years (Ferry) Through the undercover hours bad and bleak to be brief - too much sorrow and flesh is weak no more feeling no more tears the river's wide enough flowing stronger through the years Silver lips - kisses borrowed glances steal to the quick - how they quiver too late they're sealed no more feeling no more tears the river's wide enough flowing stronger through the years "flesh is weak" is reference to the Bible and "the river's wide enough" could be a reference to the Babylonian captivity.

So while the Jewish idea is intriguing it doesn't seem to me likely to be what Ferry is driving at. And he's remarked more than once that political lyrics don't interest him - he 'couldn't be bothered' with the political aspects of HARD RAIN, for example. " It was the images that interested me."

You know, the whole schizo minds in one body thing. On my "on the road video" of the '79 tour it's fairly unequivocal. But your interpretation is even more interesting.

OK, so STTY is worthy of some decent analysis. But I would really like some speculation about The Bogus Man and For Your Pleasure. I know the former is not RM's most popular track, but I love it. Both songs have the potential for great speculation over their meaning. And whilst analysing songs is about as useful as analysing why jokes are funny, no where else on the planet will indulge, so let's go for it. I'll kick off...FYP is referring to Heaven Can Wait's story, along with the descent to hell at the end (does the woman say "you don't ask why" during the banshee welcome?)...and The Bogus Man is about someone with a mucas problem.

Even if this is intentional wordplay (and it does work, I suppose) Ferry usually avoids the more humorous or subtle readings in print, hence 'marble flaws'. I'm still curious about the appearance of 'kitchen jive' on the Mamouna CD booklet, replaced by 'kitsch and jive' on the '95 tour booklet.
