| This is E letting us know he's emerged from the dark tunnel of despair following the deaths of his mother and sister. This is the first song after the much darker "Electroshock Blues," which left us wondering if and when he'd jump off a bridge. This song tells us he's getting by. 1 | |

| The Grace Kelly link is obviously about the Hitchcock actress, who gave up acting to marry Prince Rainier III of the little principality of Monaco... Her biographers show that the life of a princess was not exactly living happily ever after. Old friends from Philadelphia as well as people she had known in Hollywood reported how glad she was to talk about her life in America and to be speaking English. | |

| oh by the way the lyrics are a bit incorrect, the actual lyrics are: The cut rate mime walking through the dirty streets Of Paris in the hot august heat Sun melting the fake smile away Just looking for a place to stay The actress gave up all her old dreams And traded up, now she is a queen Royal families dont have time for that shit Your crystall ball you keep it hid The tractor trailer driver radios Help me someone I'm out here on my own Truck driving the black night away Praying for the light of day The kid in the mall works at hot dog on a stick His hat is a funny shape his heart is a brick Taking your order he will look away He doesn't have a thing to say But me I'm feeling pretty good as of now I'm not so sure when I got here or how sun melting the fake smile away I think you know I'll be ok | |
