I can see it now. Parks was a very cryptic writer, in a way i personally appreciate even though a lot of people call it pretentious. The segment of Smile seems to imply the theme of aging to me, with the girl's exploration in "Wonderful" and the childish/solemn pairing of "Look"/"Child is the Father of the Man," with the side being ended with this vision of collapse.
But as I said, the class distinctions and constant imagery of tradition and decadence do seem to portray something bigger than just one man's existential angst, though that is probably a part of it; something more akin to a societal decline.
BTW i love that Bob Dylan looking Brian Wilson you have for your avatar.
