So this song came on my iPod and over about three minutes it dawned on me that I really liked it, so I looked over at the iPod to see what it was, and all the iPod said was: "Track 07". I downloaded it from somewhere, possibly legally, but it had no ID3 info, so it was detached from anything that would allow me to buy the album.

Googling for intelligible lyrics got me my answer (see above or below), and also Fluxblog quoting the New York Times quoting some Bright Eyes fan last November:

''I've never seen anyone in music be so tormented,'' Oda said. ''The song about the coughing, shaking fit on the bathroom floor -- I don't know if I'm sounding teenaged, but when you are drunk and passed out on your bathroom floor and screaming out loud and no one can hear you because your apartment's lonely and cold, it's the perfect music.''
