Scared - Fire in the Hole - Springtime in Vienna - Bobcaygeon: references to Nazism or neo-Nazism.
Cemetery Sideroad - New Orleans is Sinking - Nautical Disaster - Scared - Poets - Emperor Penguin - Sharks - The Dire Wolf - Vaccination Scar - The Heart of the Melt - etc.: use of the recurring ocean metaphor.
Sharks - Scared - Locked - The Heart of the Melt: sharks and sea monsters.
Wheat Kings - We'll Go Too - Scared: empty museums
Cemetery Sideroad - Nautical Disaster - Vaccination Scar: lighthouses
Daredevil - Gift Shop - Cordelia: risky business
Forest Edge - Willow Logic: use of the forest archetype
Heart of the Melt - 11th Fret: melt away now
I can play this game for hours .... so I'll leave ya with:
Opiated - Brown-Eyed Women (The Grateful Dead):
the bottle is dusty but my engine is clean /
the bottle is dusty but the liquor is clean

Hmm, yeah, and while I'm at it:
Wheat Kings - We'll Go Too - Scared - Visions of Johanna (Bob Dylan)
Dylan:
Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial
Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after a while
Downie's museums have similar connotations. Hmmm..... I think Gord refers to and borrows from other lyric writers more often than people realize.

indeed, although, i don't see why people didn't just cut a piece of tree branch off for a wooden puck, seems like it would be better than poop, although i've never played with poop, so i guess i wouldn't know :lol:.
