Okay, I've had a little time to process this song better, and I like it. I think the cinnamon reference is probably Biblical and metaphorical. In ancient times, things like olive oil, cinnamon and even sheep were considered precious, because they were either difficult to obtain, or were very labor-intensive to keep for what they produced.

I like the message of this song. I like the beat. I like the vocals. I like the fact that they were able to incorporate the word "dirigible" into the lyrics and, one up from that, were able to rhyme it.

Giving this a 7.

The Decemberists are highly overrated underated. I don't know why Hazards of Love was generally overlooked.

Often like these guys...not this time.

Apparently they haven't seen what happens when you try to fill your mouth with cinnamon.

Yeah let's make our own shoes, build our houses from willow trees, and worship a strange bearded man who sleeps with all the women.
