Lyric discussion by ICYURinEcstasy 

I found some links to explain the references.

Lloyd Dobler, reference to his views on life. youtube.com/watch fumblingnormality.blogspot.com/2012/04/lloyd-dobler.html

Elwood P Dowd, very clear reference to the quote in the video, from the movie Harvey. "For years I was smart, I reccommend pleasant" youtube.com/watch

Billy Brown played by Vincent Gallo in Buffalo '66, don't know exactly why he is referred to yet, maybe I should watch the movie for that. youtube.com/watch

An error occured.
