Song trivia:

Angelene-
Inspired by "Pretty Mouth and Green My Eyes" (JD Salinger). The story is as follows: an old man and a lady are in bed when the old man's friend, Arthur, calls. His wife has yet to come home from a party, and Arthur suspects her of infidelity. So the old man gives Arthur this really long pep talk and assures him his wife will return. Sure enough, she does. The woman Polly talks of in the line "Any man calls, I'll let him in" may be Arthur's wife. Arthur says whenever he thinks of leaving her, he remembers a poem he wrote to her: "Rose my color is and white/Pretty mouth and green my eyes".

Another thing to note is that in the same book of JD Salinger short stories (Nine Stories) the story "For Esme, With Love and Squaler" has the line "Dear God, life is hell" which can be compared to the similar line from this song.
