Lyric discussion by bobdylaniscool 

"I'm only passing through" I believe this is a reference to Thornton Wilder's play "Our Town". The play has a lot to do with the realisation of life while you are living it, and whether or not people are capable of doing this. We are all just passing through, and we will all be gone.

Great song, lots of references to what life is really about. Also, can anyone tell me what life's about?

@bobdylaniscool yes, but also, he needs to tell the “gentlemen” not to “get up, I’m only passing through” because he’s dressed “in drag” lol, that’s some funny shit right there.
