I always thought 2112 was some Cannuck encryption for 69 ... It starts with the cross total after all. And then you just add
three for the next tell-ta(i)l(e) digit - just like those
three minutes into the vid where this gifted countryman songsmith of yours and cunning linguist of innuendo sings "me and my baby in a 69".
Which is real bad English, even for a Cannuck, if you are singing about the year. Or a cuntspiracy even. Herr Adams, a scorpio born '59, was 9 years old "in the summer of (19)69", very early band founder then.
