Artis the "Spoonman" was/is a famous Seattle street performer who plays, you guessed it, the spoons. It's about getting lost in a simple, yet overwhelming rhythm. I know the popular mythology surrounding this song is that it's about heroin (because most people seem to think every grunge song is about heroin), but it's not. It's not really not all that deep either, so if you're trying to analyze it as you listen, you've already missed the point. It's just about rhythm making you feel good.
