I'm pretty sure many of the lines are _not understandable by intent_, even.
"Present day... present time... ahahaha!"

Ironic that it holds the first place by understandable lines. The vocabulary isn't the complex thing - it's the content itself that eludes understanding.
Surreal and dreamlike - almost as if inviting you to connect the dots, but not giving you the labels, not giving you enough dots or an obvious enough outline to connect them confidently.
