Does this mean have a quick yank? Otherwise isn't it the most pointless thing ever? And a boring lyric?

It's fucking great. If were talking Elmore fucking James. Now you've made me want to hurry home and listen to Elmore fucking James.

ha, Clarence, I was listening to my Elmore James box set just today. I've no idea what it means.

'Elmore fucking James'? Why does this make me think of Debbie does Sesame street

He's talking about cleaning his apartment to imply that he's about to vacate it. This goes with the rest of the lyric about leaving his woman. Of course, when Elmore James turns it into "Dust My Blues" that definitely doesn't make any sense, but I love it anyways.
