Yes, let's say that, especially at the beginning, the analysis of the piece is a bit too... philological (at least for my tastes)...
But I like your effort to uncover the subtext of the characters and the causes of the events...

You're always on top..
Well, maybe back in the day you weren't exactly a champ with the girls, but I'm sure they're chasing you now..
As for Paul Simon, I confess almost total ignorance (is that how you spell it?).

The last I heard from the swans was "the seer"... great record...
This seems very different from what you've written but I'll give it a try...
Your erudite pen, yet flowing lightly, is always a pleasure to follow.

She is my ex (I broke up with her because her coffee was too watered down)
Now I'm with her sister...

The dear good old Bob... sometimes he Dylan(ia)s my soul, but he’s always the dear good old Bob (even when he was young)...

If the writer's goal is (only) to sell her product, I have no doubt she will succeed: there’s even a guide to discover our pseudo-fascist temperature based on stereotypes worthy of a fair of banality (ok, I can’t know since I haven’t read it, but... something tells me I’m not far from the truth).
Salvini, Di Maio, Merkel, Trump?
To me, they seem to be nothing more than the screws, the washers, the last bolts of a socio-economic System that crushes billions of human beings in millions of different ways: does Salvini & Co. fall? They are people easily replaceable by the System; the true engine is elsewhere.
Even fascism... isn’t it a superstructural thing? Isn’t it the consequence of (monstrous) socio-economic inequalities? If it has to be done, wouldn’t it be better to read works that go to the root of the problem?
"Brecht’s Mother Courage" is one of the greatest (and misunderstood) works in this sense (with the audience moved and praising this mother who stubbornly continued her trade despite the deprivations of war, while Brecht wanted to show how enslaved she was by a socio-economic System that devoured her children one by one in the name of reckless greed for money and social recognition)..
Ok, maybe I digressed..
