I don't understand why this song is considered abstract or impenetrable.

Lines like "I was Stone and he was Wax / So he could scream, / and still relax, unbelievable", or "and the solid book we wrote / Cannot be found today" would seem to describe a long-term gay relationship.

I am aware of the power of the Rorschach inkblot test; I don't go reading this topic into all the abstract impenetrable art out there.

Isn't there a review, somewhere, that points out this obvious detail, so we can grandfather it in?

Compare Bohemian_Rhapsody, which is _not_ abstract, because it's a parody of a rock opera. Nobody pointed that out on the page, leaving the page open to wild alternative theories...
