    it's about a blacksmith with no hnds. written before i ever knew about vulcan, who i guess (from what i read in a flannery o'connor story) was a lame blacksmith to the gods. or something like that. so yeah. another metaphor for impotence. not the dirty kind. just the emotional or motivational kind. this is really too much information. sorry.

    Lyrics
    someone ran off with his hands.
    the townspeople gasped to see
    and worried (about horseshoe delay).
    left with nothin' to hold his head,
    the blacksmith found comfort in sleep.

    dreams of banging steel and clanging. midnight fixes of iron lust.

    deeper down to his silent world.
    took a morphine plunge 4 pleasure extra.
    waking hours alone and dead
    as children stood on shoulders, peaked.

    dreams of glowing metal passion.
    horses galloping (un)shoed and proud.
