This song is about a man named Eleanore who has been living alone for a long time. He is very strict about his rules and is nervous around strangers. He has a list of things that he considers to be a "technical foul", or a violation of his rules. Some examples include not taking off your shoes when you come inside, changing the radio station, leaving the door open, and touching the thermostat. Eleanore warns that if you break these rules, there will be consequences. The protagonist of the song is unsure if he can follow all of these rules, but he doesn't want to end up homeless.

The song ends with the protagonist realizing that he has no choice but to comply with Eleanore's demands.
