Yes. I always thought that the line Pink Pair of Dice - or is it Pink Paradise- foot of the parking Lot- was a veiled reference to Admiral Rosenthal ( the name means Pink Valley or alternately Valley of Roses)- Palisades Amusement Park which closed in l97l. In a very real sense it was a Pink Paradise- and had a sort of sloping asphalt side road which seemed to fit in to the song. Babe"s Taxicabs- the used a Baseball as a trademark, were located in nearby Fort Lee, and surely they took a big drop when the park went out of business. you don"t know what you"ve got- till it"s gone- Pink Paradise, foot of the parking lot. oversized fabric dice were a common souvenir in amusement arcades, also- frequently hung over the mirrors ( rear view) of automobiles as a sort of luck charm.
