Topic: What would this particular lyric mean?

Anonymous A started this discussion 10 years ago #52,220

This is going to sound like another 'kookbait' thread, but this song was clearly written before the media had focus on such issues.

This is, of course, the theme song to the sitcom Cheers.

Making your way in the world today takes everything you've got
Taking a break from all your worries, sure would help a lot
Wouldn't you like to get away?

All those night when you've got no lights, the check is in the mail
And your little angel hung the cat up by it's tail
And your third fiancee didn't show

Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name
And they're always glad you came
You wanna be where you can see our troubles are all the same
You wanna be where everybody knows your name

Roll out of bed, Mr. Coffee's dead, the morning's looking bright
And your shrink ran off to Europe and didn't even write
And your husband wants to be a girl

Be glad, there's one place in the world
Where everybody knows your name and they're always glad you came
You want to go where people know, people are all the same
You want to go where everybody knows your name

Where everybody knows your name and they're always glad you came
Where everybody knows your name and they're always glad you came
Where everybody knows your name and they're always glad you came

That is why I said the media's focus on issues.

The lyric, taken in the context of the list of troubles and misfortunes, means that the person views having a husband that wants to be a girl as another misfortune in the person's life. Like, what the fuck, my husband wants to be a girl and my coffee machine is busted too. What next

Upon further observation, this seems to be, in fact, correct.

This person, also seems, to have a brat for a child too.
