Mati, a divorced mother of a young daughter, makes a living selling bric-a-bric from a wheelbarrow and dreams of opening a snack bar. But she falls for the charms of Naago, a cop, and it's only when the Tajaboom festival (at which women and men switch roles) arrives that her opportunity for escape emerges.

Tells the story of a woman who moves from California to New York. The song draws parallels with Duritz's personal journey and his own struggles with mental illness.
