I´ll have to check that question.

Me & Julio is not about homosexuality, but some people THOUGHT that this is about a homosexual story Paul had at school - and this was absolute rubbish.

It was rumoured... I think, Bodo, that are your words like in that question - and that´s OK...
Anyway - I always thought about that, and I don´t think it´s important, what exactly "mama saw"... I think, that song is about the boyhood in slums... About these boys, which do something "against the law" (but not the serious crimes) just for fun, about their freedom, their irresponsibility...

I think Paul was asked about what the mama saw and his reply was "something homosexual"...to me its just a great song

"Something sexual." Truman Capote characteristically thought it was about homosexuality, but Paul Simon himself denies it. He´d probably say that it´s just one of a whole range of possible interpretations.

Yes, he just imagined "something sexual".... Maybe mama saw this boy doing something which she had supposed, he´s too young for?
