I like it...
but what's that about dictionaries etc?
The character being sung about is good with words. Dictionaries are genereally associated as being authority figures on words and their uses. So by giving them heart attacks he's trumping them. In people terms, he makes smart people look not so smart.
Pamphlets contain very little information, often just the main points without any details. In people terms, people who are shallow and have limited knowledge. Novels are fiction and poetic, in people terms they're idealistic. They are drawn to the character because of how charismatic he is, thus, orbiting his charming wit.
Thanks for asking, always fun to explain my lyrics.
