ok, here's my take on the rabbits. A bunny in one form or another shows up in a lot of the pictures. I think the key though is the picture for You & Me. The two rabbits are in a boat and there are flying rabbits over them. The song You & Me was written by Dave when he was on a trip with the family...on a boat. I think that the rabbit represents Dave.

Am I way off?

i think the fish in the sky is alligator pie (like the city is underwater)

if u look closely there's a monkey under where their hands meet, looking unhappily at the transaction. the cop is white, the tank top guy is black. maybe the black guy is being "shaken" down for money "like a monkey"?

Good to know there is extended artwork, I just have the regular CD. I knew there had to be a monkey somewhere in there!

Bottom right corner. And, it looks like he's dealing him drugs... not paying him. Maybe the drugs are the payment....

I'm sure someone has mentioned the woman in the bottom right who has written on the back of her shirt "All the freaks are on parade I wanna fill my belly so I gotta get paid" (Spaceman)

Also the four men throwing beads from the float are Dave, Carter, Stefan & Boyd (2 white & 2 black)

What's the meaning of the gun at the guy's head in the bottom right corner (only on pdf file, not on album cover) Also what's the reference of the lobster claw in the bottom right?

Squirm lyrics.

"it's not a gun to your head but you're gonna die before you're dead."

Kinda half ass back read but the 4 ppl on the wall wouldn't that be You & Me since originally we have a title name of You and Me Stripped Down?
