Waldo Jeffers was obviously doomed from the beginning. He's clearly a stalker with no grip on reality, so I can't empathise with him much. I didn't actually pay attention to this story until about the tenth time I heard the album. The masturbatory jam session is more interesting than the words.

"...right through the center of Waldo Jeffers head, which split slightly and caused little rhythmic arcs of red to pulsate gently in the morning sun. " Wonderful imagery.

A bloated, pretentious pile of shit. Two minutes in I predicted Waldo would die violently, and the only thing I could think was, Jesus Christ, I have to wait six more minutes for this garbage to end? By the time Marsha started having trouble opening the box I knew exactly what was going to happen, and every second the climax was delayed was agonizing boredom. When it was finally over I was relieved that fucker finally died, and pissed off I had to listen to his entire goddamn mind-numbingly awful story. The fact that this song is so lauded only demonstrates how illiterate and easily impressed typicals rockers are. "omg, this song has spoken-word narrative lyrics with a generic, predictable twist ending! never mind any middle school dipshit could write something similar! SO AVANT-GARDE!" This song is boring, predictable, and has no meaning or significance. It is a masturbatory jam session. I fucking hate it.
