...Street in Nassau. There is little doubt that Sir Stafford, who returned voluntarily to face the commission, will be able to hang on to his money, and no assurance at all that the islands have seen the last of his political cronies. Last week, in a special election to fill the spot Sir Stafford gave up in the General Assembly, his United Bahamian Party hung on to his seat by the simple expedient of running a Negro.

...They had to count them all..."--this refers to Scotland Yard's search for bodies buried in a moor. The method they used was to sink poles in the earth and sniff the ends for the odor of decomposing flesh. "Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall," the song continues. I.E., now they know that an audience, like the audience on the record, is so many dead, empty, hollow, units of loneliness. "I'd love to turn you on," concludes the song. What else could you do under the circumstances...
