This is just a great song.
I think the lyrics are some of the best, too.
What do you all think the second verse means, though:
red man's your neighbor, call it behavior
while you're climbing up slippery hills
two steps ahead of him, punctures in your neck
hovering just above your bed
hovering just above your bed
I really have no idea.
Any thoughts are good.

red man's your neighbour -> red mosquito
while you're climbing up slippery hills -> whilst you're dreaming
two steps ahead of him -> on slippery hills in your dream
punctures in your neck -> mosquito bite
hovering just above your bed -> hovering just above your bed
Well, that's an idea. Someone who knows the actual interpretation is welcome to come and tear mine to pieces.
On another note, how do they make the rhythm guitar sound like that?!
Love the song.
wah wah waaaah!!! ..........viking banjo hits of the 70's!

Red mosquito/man is the devil
He's your neighboor cause he's always there, next to you, always trying to tempt you. To bite you in this case. Even when you're trying to build something good, to create something good he's always there 2 steps ahead of you.
"while you're climbing up slippery hills" <-- life is a slippery hill, you want to climb it, but it's not that easy, devil's is closer to you than you think, 2 steps ahead of you, to remind you that you're not gonna live forever.
i think that eddie was trying to say that you can't LIVE if you don't remember you're destined to DIE sooner or later.
