Also, in part, the song is also inspired by Brian Wilson: "William Wilson, let him run wild.!" Thanks for the upload!

William Wilson is a psychologically driven short story by Edgar Allen Poe about a man who meets his double, or "doppelganger", who acts as the man's conscience/alter ego, and in time, drives him to insanity.

Pat Dinizio said in an interview that part of the song is about William Wilson....the founder of Alcoholics Anonymous and the rest of it was about other things which I can't remember at the moment!

I've always wondered who William Wilson is or was ? I met the Smithereens by accident in 2010. It was the only time in my life I got star struck. It sounds corny but I had to walk away as I was getting all chocked up. I had a talk with the lead singer and told him I always liked the green thoughts album cover and asked if it has something to do with money because it had that silouette of a corporate guy standing in a doorway. He said NO its about Envy.
