Chuck Ragan: California Burritos Meaning

California Burritos Lyrics

How cold can a heart become
Before it crumbles
Or decides to stay numb

I know what it's like to feel cold
I don't wanna die alone

'cause I can't stand feeling nothing
I can't stand feeling old
I cant stand standing for nothing
When...

   He is a punching bag and he keeps getting knocked down. He gets back up each & every time the jackasses throw him onto the ground! He is so proud of himself. Up With People, is his motto for himself. People like to kick, punch, exploit, expose & generally HURT him in a brutal and deceitful manner. He is TIRED of it. He is worried that his heart has crumbled just like grandpappy's testicles. He has been freezing all by his lonesome because the people who abused him then ran away from him like a bunch of complete sissy fauntleroys. He feels like he is dying and he is asking the pantywaists where they went. His feelings vacillate from intensely acute severe suffering -like 700, 000 needles being punctured into his sore bruises- iNTO a numb-like state. He thinks that feeling nothing feels really amazing after all of the pain he has felt but then he realizes he feels rotten because he feels no joy. I just said feel so many times in a row and I am embarrassed that I didn't use another word for it. I probably should have. All he knows how to do is to stand up & fight gravity because he HATES gravity so much. He despises feeling ancient. It's boring to him. He is asking the woman that he loves, who happens to resemble a burrito, if they could please stop turning their backs on one another. He is exhausted from shunning her. He wants to walk toward her in a progressive manner. He wants parts of his body to grow, apparently. He does not want to feel NOTHING anymore and he really doesn't want to feel YUCKY either. Yucky meaning just like a boiled lamb. It hurts to feel that way. Then again, she wouldn't really know because the assumption here is that she is a well-crafted California Burrito. He wants to blend the lamb into the burrito and make a sort of healthy ethno-greek-souvlaki-california-tortilla-wrap out of their love for one another. I really adore this song because it sounds pleasing to my ears today. It makes me want to do an impish jig right here in my dark kitchen with the spies watching o'er me...
