My apologies. I didn't mean to imply that you didn't know what the 
word meant, although I can see now, re-reading what I wrote, that it 
must have come across that way. I was merely trying to illustrate 
that Black's use of the word was appropriate and it wouldn't have 
been all that hard for him to have found out what the word meant, 
himself.

I suppose it is, but I don't listen to very much rock music, so that 
aspect of the song hadn't occurred to me.
