Gaffa



Thanks Jon.  I'm glad that someone else has transcended the old Gaffer's tape
interpretation of this song.  I'm sure that the big Kate guns are at this
moment being fired, using interpretations of interviews as their shells.
I posted something concerning this a while back, also assuming the root of
Gaffa to be gaffe.  If you are not looking for 'deep symbolic meaning',
the social blunder aspect is much more in line with the literal meaning
of the song.  But, Doug has informed me that I am wrong.  I like the
sex angle (that is as much as I can like any symbolic interpretation).  There
is more coroboration for the lost virginity view in the literal verse than
anything else I've heard about on this list. 

John
