Phish - Joy

This is from their 2009 release, and is written about Trey's sister, Kristy Manning, who passed away earlier in the year. She did a lot of charity work and such through Phish and other outlets, actually leading Trey's The Seven Below Arts Endeavor and passed after a struggle with cancer.

The song is actually written by Mercury and "dedicated to" their former manager, Norman Sheffield, who was screwing them over horribly.

I don't know about that, they could be preparing for a rousing game of tiddlywinks.

As for hidden meanings, wasn't there this big thing about a lyric in "Another one Bites The Dust" by Queen that sounded like "It's fun to smoke Marijuana" when played backwards?
