   So my interpretation is that the band were playing snooker in a club and the rules were after potting a Red then a coulour then a red so it was mentioned to an unfamiliar band member who was not offay with the sequence by whom i am not sure and to whom the next shot was a colour and said which one and so the quote goes " Any colour you like "

   The nurses at the insane asylum are sedating the protagonist of the album by giving him drugs. The title of the song refers to the fact that they are arbitrarily choosing which pills to give him. The music in the song reflects the impact of these pills on the protagonist's mind.
