<<I've always visualized a priest "on watch," checking out working girls (or boys), or stealing a glance at porno publications, and hoping not to be caught.>>
That's an interesting take on it, Lori. But I think if this were the case, she would have said: Like a Priest ON a pornographic watch, instead of "with"...nit-picky I know, but the use of "with" implies a possession to me. I'm in the camp that interprets this one pretty literally. Either way, the Priest is doing something he ought not to be doing... This is one of those fabulous lyrical moments that only Joni could conjure up. Bob NP: TMBG, "Mr. Tambourine Man"
