  • How should I understand the lyric, '...but when we got back, labelled parts 1 to 3' from The Pogues song 'A Pair Of Brown Eyes'? It throws my entire comprehension of its first verse.

    I don't think Shane is always completely tethered to reality, so I wouldn't expect all of his lyrics to make sense. Besides, songwriters sometimes just use words that rhythmically or aurally work.
    See 'pompetus of love'.
