“…In
the days when outer coats were made from heavy woolen material and a regular
brushing was required to keep them looking clean, the "Specks" were
dust, dirt, lint or other contaminant that was easily brushed off with a coarse
brush. The "Spicks" were less easily removed being embedded into the
material and requiring a more intensive approach to get rid of them. …
…the
Spicks and Specks of the song, is a reference to the clutter of everyday life
that can attach itself to us and while some is easy to remove others are not so
readily dealt with. “
