This post reminds me of an ambiguity in a song by Barenaked Ladies about a guy who dies falling asleep at the wheel of his car. He keeps singing (about his girlfriend/wife), "You're the last thing on my mind" and I haven't yet decided if they mean (a) she was the final thing on his mind before he died, or (b) he was thinking about everything else except her when he died. Anyone else know the song and have an opinion?
This ambiguity may be intentional - if the guys in Barenaked Ladies had more time and were less famous I'm sure they would join the group here. They are true wordophiles, you can tell from their songs.
