@Handitar its about a family (nest) of w.a.s.p. (white anglo saxon protestants)- rich privileged wasps with born into money- family fortunes inherited and how annoying they are with all their money cause theyre so privileged! silver spoon suckers.
first time i heard it, i thought it was 'your cursing a stone (as in a diamond ring or something) in a cocktail dress'. kinda disapointed with the actual lyric :(
@mojonotsag i think the real lyrics are nice though. I imagine this girl who's beautifully dolled up in her mother's dress but she's soaked from the rain and she looks up and curses the weather. But it's not a depressing or sad vision.
@calmcyco cussing a storm doesn't mean she's literally swearing at the rain. it just means she's swearing cuz she's drunk and belligerent. i think the character is aware of the fact that his lover is a flawed human being. that's the point of the song, you're a wasp nest.
@MelanyBlackDH He's suggesting that one has to be english to understand the first line or moreso that one must understand english dialect/pronunciation . That would advocate that he thinks that they are english which they are not.
beautiful song!

@Mateu89 It's about a woman who is beautiful and tempting but ultimately bad for him.
