I've always wondered about this. It seems to be almost a blatant
reference to Kate herself as the protaganist. Usually, she keeps
herself separate from her song personae, but here she really seems
to indicate that it is *her*! Is this not something of a rarity
among Katia? Other than songs like Them Heavy People and All The Love
and possibly a couple of early songs, this seems to be as clear a
self-reference (indirect perhaps) as any in Kate lore. Or does
sisters just not fit the rhyme scheme? :-)
