Thats interesting. Its well known that Meat had big problems with his father. I think he tried to kill Meat, so he ran away to LA.
I've heard some people suggest that Jim might have had a problem with his father because he wrote the song but I think he was possibly wrote "Objects" about Meat or with Meat in mind. Like with "Paradise" when Meat told Jim about an experience and Jim wrote the song.
