It all makes sense now

As I've become wiser to the ways of the world, the two puzzling sections of one of my favorite songs finally fell into place.

NOFX - Scavenger Type (2.3mb mp3)

Giggin' alone at the bottom of the hill
Our protagonist named Bill
Sets his sights on an Anchor Steam pint
All he needs is thirteen quarters
Congregated in his hat

A crow, a scavenger type
California redemption
Provides him with his rent
Room and board inside of
A fifth of Comfort

As the wind penetrates his bones
His mind keep focused
Tidal waves of sound
Catapulted from his horn
Wail like lovers

The coins don't drop consistent
As does the mercury
His meter slows realizing a zenith
He's reached perfection
No one did see him die

It's a short song and it's going away in a week :)
