Discover the story of the song > But Never a Key – dirt poor robins

The song talks about a protagonist named Algernon who was once trapped in a maze but is now out and their tragedy has ended happily. However, they are still stuck in a different kind of cage, where their warden provides everything they need but they don't have the freedom to leave. The lyrics suggest that Algernon may be a hedonist, who wants pleasure without responsibility, and they are tied up too tightly and unraveling.
