863:", concerns office politics and class warfare. More specifically, the song is about the brutality of big business in striking those down who are too weak to obtain power for themselves. It contains the first reference to the 'armed forces'. Writer Franklin Bruno states that while "Accidents Will Happen" was a showcase for Costello's voice, "Senior Service" "reintroduces" the Attractions and contains a widely different production style from the previous track.

Costello refers to the Irish as " 414: 1599: 928:"Goon Squad" builds on the theme of "Oliver's Army" of "underhand recruitment".

Musically, Costello traced the song back to 40: 280: 2062: 2057: 2024: 1986: 1936: 1886: 1881: 1333: 2365: 2360: 2355: 2350: 2345: 2317: 2312: 2307: 2302: 2297: 2052: 2047: 2042: 2019: 2014: 2009: 2004: 1981: 1976: 1971: 1966: 1931: 1926: 1921: 1916: 1876: 1871: 1866: 1848: 1843: 1838: 1833: 1815: 1810: 1805: 1800: 1795: 1777: 1772: 1767: 1762: 1757: 1383: 1378: 1373: 1368: 1363: 1328: 1323: 1318: 1313: 1000:", while Bruno compares it to Bowie's "plastic soul" era. Lyrically, the song is about the pain one feels at the end of a relationship, with sinister undertones that reflect moods of disillusionment, alienation and fear.
