I always assumed it to be a handle of some sort, although I concede
that there's no logical support for that reading

On the topic of questions, I was playing Willy Takes A Trip this
morning, and I got to wondering if Geoff Eddie wasn't in fact
referencing Van Der Graaf Generator's "A Plague Of Lighthouse
Keepers" in "The Custard's Last Stand". It's an obvious pun I guess,
so he isn't necessarily copying it off them, but he has quoted King
Crimson in the past, so why not VdGG?
