To me it just seems a typical abstracted Tori lyric... "here's a list of the things in my garden, which I wish you'd get out of btw, oh & now I'm going to philosophise about our relationship for a couple of lines & throw in a biblical reference for good measure." Don't get me wrong, I still love the song, but it doesn't pass my brilliant-song-writer test (i.e. lyrics that can stand alone without musical accompanience.) BTW, (just for you Roozi) I checked out the Uni of Melbourne's history dept & I am very very tempted, some of the masters' seminars definately had me inspired... also an ex-Melburnian I know well who went there reckons I'd love it.
