I know it's just nonsense lyrics but damn does it feel like there is an epic story you are only getting parts of

It's very much not nonsense. What you're experiencing is poetry.

Ok well I mean it's random. The stories don't form a coherent narrative

Yeah that song has always made me feel that way. I know what you mean. Someday some adventurous author will write one to go with it all. (Or already has I bet.)

I will wait until after it gets expanded into a 7 thick novel series then made into a 90 minute live-action movie, clearly written and directed by someone who only read the Wikipedia article on it.
