Thanks for the great links Rob, and for helping us understand this song better. (at least those of us in far away places who'd never heard of Cloudland)
Honestly, I always wondered what that line really meant. Firmly rooted in the real world, as usual. Gotta love the Oils. BTW "Dreamworld" stands in my books as the greatest Oils anthem of all time, and captures what the band is all about IMHO. (Coolest video, too) It's got all the essential Oily elements - tragedy, rage, wonder, awakening, and superb rocking - I'm still awed, what a monster tune.
cheers,
